Incheon Bridge
View of the world's longest cable-stayed bridges stretching across the Yellow Sea shortly after takeoff.
Loess Plateau
The unique, highly eroded yellow-earth landscape of north-central China featuring intricate terrace patterns.
Tianshan Mountains
The 'Celestial Mountains' provide a stunning backdrop of jagged, snow-capped peaks that dominate the horizon for hours.
Issyk-Kul Lake
One of the world's largest alpine lakes, nestled in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan with brilliant blue water.
Fergana Valley
The lush green agricultural heartland of Central Asia visible just before the final descent into Tashkent.
The left side is superior for mountain lovers. On a daytime flight, the sun will be on this side, so expect some glare; however, the views of the Tianshan range are unmatched. For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to avoid engine heat haze when photographing the peaks of Kyrgyzstan.

Beijing Metropolis
On many flight paths, the vast urban sprawl of the Chinese capital and the nearby Tianjin port are visible to the north.
Gobi Desert
The northern edge of the Gobi offers a desolate yet beautiful landscape of rocky plains and shifting sands.
Lake Balkhash
The distinctive crescent-shaped lake in Kazakhstan, famous for having half-fresh and half-salt water.
Kazakh Steppe
The seemingly endless golden and green horizons of the world's largest dry steppe region.
Tashkent Cityscape
A great view of the expanding Uzbek capital's TV tower and modern architecture depending on the landing pattern.
Choose the right side if you prefer softer lighting, as it faces north away from the sun. This side is particularly interesting for identifying large-scale Chinese infrastructure and the unique geography of the Kazakh steppe. It is often the best side for night flights to see the lights of Beijing and Urumqi.
