MWX → PEK
Which side of the plane to sit from Muan International Airport (Muan) to Beijing Capital International Airport (Beijing)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Bohai Sea crossing and is the prime position for spotting the Great Wall snaking through the Yanshan Mountains during the northern arrival into Beijing.

Jeollanam-do Shoreline
The rugged western coastline of Korea, characterized by dramatic tidal changes and complex river deltas.
Dalian & Liaodong Peninsula
On clear days, the distant southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula is visible across the Bohai Strait.
Shanhaiguan (Old Dragon's Head)
The historic location where the Great Wall of China meets the sea, visible as the flight crosses into the Hebei coastline.
Yanshan Mountains
Dramatic, jagged peaks that form a natural barrier north of Beijing, often snow-capped during winter months.
The Great Wall
Look for the winding stone fortifications of the Gubeikou or Jinshanling sections during the descent into the capital.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. Keep a close watch as the plane descends over the mountains north of Beijing; the Great Wall is often visible along the ridgelines. High-altitude haze is common, so polarized lenses can significantly improve the visibility of the terrain.
