Which side of the plane to sit from Ganzhou Airport (Ganzhou) to Nanchang Changbei International Airport (Nanchang)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the Gan River's winding path and a spectacular view of the southern wetlands of Poyang Lake upon the descent into Nanchang.
Gan River Channel
Excellent views of the main waterway of Jiangxi, often dotted with cargo barges and intricate meanders.
Poyang Lake Basin
As the flight nears Nanchang, the vast wetlands and southern waters of China's largest freshwater lake become visible.
Nanchang Urban Skyline
A close-up view of the modern skyscrapers and the iconic Ferris wheel on the Gan River banks during the final approach.
Wuyi Range Foothills
The hazy, rhythmic ridges of the eastern mountain ranges that separate Jiangxi from Fujian.
A morning flight is ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating Poyang Lake and the Nanchang skyline perfectly. Keep your camera ready during the final 15 minutes of the flight for the best river and lake scenery.
Ganzhou Old City
A clear view of the confluence of the Zhang and Gong rivers forming the Gan River, featuring the historic city walls.
Luoxiao Mountains
Distant views of the rugged mountain range that defines the border between Jiangxi and Hunan provinces.
Wan'an Reservoir
The expansive blue waters of this major dam along the Gan River corridor.
Ji'an Hillside Forests
Dense subtropical evergreen forests and rolling green hills typical of central Jiangxi.
Choose an evening flight to catch the sun setting over the western mountains. Seats in the front of the cabin will provide an unobstructed view of the Ganzhou urban layout immediately after takeoff.
