Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the iconic Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the glittering Macau skyline during the final approach into Zhuhai, complemented by the stunning Dianchi Lake shortly after takeoff.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
💧

Dianchi Lake

Immediately after departure from Kunming, witness the vast expanse of 'The Sparkling Pearl of the Highland' to the south of the city.

⛰️

Guangxi Karst Landscape

Look down at the surreal, pointed limestone peaks and lush greenery typical of the Guilin and Hezhou regions midway through the flight.

🌉

HK-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge

During the final descent, catch the world's longest sea-crossing bridge stretching across the Lingdingyang channel.

🎰

Macau Skyline

Unmatched views of the Cotai Strip casinos, the Macau Tower, and the dense urban cluster of the peninsula just before landing.

🏝️

Wanshan Archipelago

Clusters of small, verdant islands scattered across the blue waters of the South China Sea during the standard landing pattern.

Choose the right side for the ultimate 'money shot' of the bridge and Macau. For the best photography, aim for a late afternoon flight to capture the sunset reflecting off the South China Sea and the neon lights of Macau beginning to flicker on.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
⛰️

Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau

Bird's-eye view of the rugged, terraced mountainous terrain and deep river valleys crossing the border between Yunnan and Guizhou provinces.

🏙️

Guangzhou Outskirts

As the flight nears the Pearl River Delta, the sprawling urban density of Foshan and western Guangzhou becomes visible to the northeast.

🌊

Xijiang River

Watch the winding path of the Pearl River's main tributary as it snakes through the green landscape of southern China.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. While less scenic during the final approach, the left side provides excellent views of the vast urban expansion of the Greater Bay Area as you descend from the clouds.
