Poyang Lake Basin
Expansive views of the massive wetland system and the Gan River delta during the initial climb.
Yangtze River Delta Edge
Observe the massive shipping traffic on the Yangtze River near Nanjing and the surrounding water networks.
Qingdao Coastal View
Panoramic views of the rugged Shandong coastline and the yellow waters of the sea meeting the land.
Bohai Strait Islands
A stunning chain of islands, including the Changshan Islands, visible as the plane crosses from Shandong to Liaoning.
Dalian Port and Bay
Spectacular views of one of North China's busiest maritime hubs and the Xinghai Bridge during descent.
The right side is essential for seeing the Bohai Strait crossing. For the best photography, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the coastal features. During the descent into DLC, the right side usually provides a closer look at the Dalian city skyline and the vast port facilities.
