Yunnan-Guizhou Karst
Dramatic limestone peaks and deep valleys that characterize the early cruise phase over Southwest China.
Dongting Lake Northern Edge
Visibility of the expansive wetlands and northern shores of China's second-largest freshwater lake.
Nanjing Metropolitan Area
A clear view of the Purple Mountain and the dense urban skyline of Nanjing as you begin descent.
Yangtze River Crossings
Multiple massive cable-stayed and suspension bridges spanning the Yangtze River in the Anhui-Jiangsu corridor.
Book an 'A' seat for the best northern perspective. In the morning, this side avoids direct sun, making it easier to take photos of the Guizhou mountains. Look for the transition from the red earth of Yunnan to the lush greens of the Yangtze valley approximately 45 minutes into the flight.

An 'F' seat is ideal for seeing the vast water bodies of South-Central China. During sunset flights, the right side captures the golden hour reflection over the numerous lakes and rivers in the Jiangnan region. Watch for the rapid urbanization patterns as you approach the industrial heart of Jiangsu.
