Yangtze River Crossing
Witness the immense scale of the Yangtze River as it cuts through the landscape near Nanjing.
Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal
The world's longest artificial river visible as a distinct artery through the eastern plains.
Mount Tai (Taishan)
One of China's 'Five Great Mountains' rising prominently from the Shandong landscape.
Jinan 'Spring City'
View of the Shandong capital city located just north of the Mount Tai massif.
Daxing International Airport
The massive 'Starfish' design of Beijing's newest airport is often visible during the Nanyuan approach.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to catch the sunrise over the East China Sea coast. Landmarks like Mount Tai are best seen mid-flight; look for a solitary mountain rising sharply from the flat plains. On the final descent into Nanyuan, the right side often provides a clearer view of the sprawling southern Beijing urban development.
