Guizhou Karst Peaks
Initial climb out of Guiyang reveals endless clusters of limestone cone hills unique to this region.
Yangtze River Crossing
A spectacular view of China's longest river as the flight path crosses the middle reaches near Hubei.
Dabie Mountain Range
Rugged forested ridges and deep valleys marking the transition between central and eastern China.
Mount Tai (Taishan)
One of the most sacred peaks in China, visible as a massive granite massif shortly before the descent into Jinan.
Morning flights are highly recommended to capture the Guizhou karst mountains in the mist. As you enter the Shandong province, keep your camera ready about 15-20 minutes before touchdown to see the distinct silhouette of Mount Tai protruding from the surrounding plains.

Guiyang Urban Skyline
A glimpse of the rapidly growing high-tech hubs and skyscrapers nestled between Guizhou's hills.
Central China Plains
Vast stretches of Henan and Anhui provinces featuring intricate agricultural patterns and rural settlements.
Wuhan Metropolitan Area
Distant views of the massive urban sprawl and industrial zones of the 'Chicago of the East' along the Yangtze.
Yellow River S-Curves
During the final approach, the meandering path of the 'Mother River' can often be seen glinting in the distance.
If flying in the late afternoon, the right side offers better lighting for the central plains without the direct glare of the sun. Watch for the massive bridge networks over the major rivers, which are hallmarks of the region's infrastructure.
