LYG → WUH
Which side of the plane to sit from Lianyungang Airport (Lianyungang) to Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (Wuhan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the majestic Dabie Mountain range and the scenic reservoirs north of Wuhan during the descent.
Yuntai Mountain
Lianyungang's highest peak and scenic area visible shortly after takeoff.
Anhui Farmland
A geometric tapestry of rice paddies and agricultural plots stretching across the Huai River plain.
Dabie Mountains
The flight passes directly over or alongside this dramatic mountain range with its rugged peaks and deep valleys.
Mulan Lake
A beautiful reservoir near Wuhan named after the legendary heroine Mulan.
Tianhe Approach
Excellent views of northern Wuhan's developing industrial parks and the airport perimeter.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid direct glare while observing the rugged terrain of the Dabie Mountains. Keep your camera ready about 30-40 minutes into the flight for the best mountain vistas. During the descent, look for the unique turquoise water of the regional reservoirs.
Yellow Sea Coastline
Initial views of the Lianyungang coastline and busy port infrastructure during the climb out.
Hongze Lake
One of China's largest freshwater lakes, visible as a vast silver expanse to the south.
Hefei Urban Fringe
Distant glimpses of the capital of Anhui province and its rapid urban development.
Yangtze River Bend
Stunning aerial views of the Yangtze as it meanders through the Hubei plains.
Wuhan East Lake
A massive urban lake surrounded by greenery and city skyscrapers just before landing.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the numerous lakes in the Yangtze River basin. This side is also better for spotting the expansive East Lake (Donghu) during the final approach into Wuhan if the wind is from the north.
