Which side of the plane to sit from Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang) to Bijie Feixiong Airport (Bijie)?

Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Wujiang River tributaries and the rugged canyon systems that characterize the northern Guizhou plateau.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Guiyang Northern Suburbs

A clear view of the city's expansion as urban residential blocks integrate into the mountainous terrain.

🌊

Wujiang River Canyons

Deep, winding river valleys with steep limestone cliffs that define the drainage basins of central Guizhou.

🏘️

Bijie Cityscape

Excellent aerial views of Bijie city nestled in a valley as the aircraft maneuvers for landing at Feixiong Airport.

Sit toward the rear of the cabin to ensure the wing doesn't obstruct the view of the deep river canyons. The descent into Bijie is particularly scenic on this side as the plane follows the natural contours of the valley.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🛶

Hongfeng Lake

Visible shortly after takeoff from Guiyang, this large reservoir features numerous islands and turquoise water.

🏔️

Karst Formations

Endless successions of conical limestone hills typical of the South China Karst landscape.

🌉

Mountain Infrastructure

Spot massive highway and high-speed rail bridges spanning deep mountain gorges at high altitudes.

Watch for the shimmering reflection of Hongfeng Lake within the first 10 minutes of flight. Morning flights are ideal as the southern sun illuminates the karst peaks without creating harsh glare.
