Fly past the highest peak in the Miaoling Mountains, often shrouded in dramatic cloud cover.

A clear view of the regional hub for the Miao culture, situated in a valley surrounded by high ridges.
Duliu River Valley
The lifeblood of the Dong people, this river valley is lined with ancient forests and winding roads.
Traditional Dong Villages
Spot the distinct clusters of wooden stilt houses and 'Drum Towers' as you descend toward Liping.
Liping Forest Park
Dense evergreen canopy covering the rolling hills as the aircraft makes its final approach.
Choose a seat behind the wing for an unobstructed view of the ground. The descent into Liping is particularly scenic as the plane flies lower over traditional wooden villages. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for photographing the deep green valleys and architectural details of the stilt houses.

Guiyang Urban Fringe
Watch the modern skyline of Guiyang transition into the rugged karst landscape immediately after takeoff.
Karst Peak Forest
Observe the endless sea of conical limestone hills that are characteristic of the Guizhou plateau.
Qingshui River
A winding waterway that carves through the mountains, providing a shimmering contrast to the green terrain.
Majiang Terraces
View the intricate patterns of agricultural terracing carved into the hillsides by local farmers.
This side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Look for the mist settling between the karst peaks, which creates a classic 'shanshui' painting effect. Keep your camera ready for the first 15 minutes as you climb over the outskirts of Guiyang.
