Dongjiang River
Watch the winding path of the river that provides the primary water source for the region.
Shenzhen CBD
An incredible view of the Ping An Finance Centre and the dense forest of skyscrapers in the Futian district.
HK-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge
The massive bridge-tunnel system spanning the Pearl River estuary is clearly visible on final approach.
Lantau Island
Aerial views of the Big Buddha statue and the mountainous spine of Hong Kong's largest island.
HKG Airport Expansion
View the impressive 'Three-Runway System' reclamation project and the massive terminal infrastructure.
The right side is ideal for photographers interested in the Shenzhen skyline. To avoid harsh sun glare during midday or afternoon flights, the right side is preferred as it faces north/west. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge which looks like a silver thread stretching across the sea.

Rugged, verdant peaks of eastern Guangdong immediately visible after departing Meizhou.
Daya Bay
A glimpse of the coastal inlet and the massive nuclear power complex along the eastern shoreline.
Sai Kung Peninsula
Hong Kong's 'back garden' featuring emerald waters and volcanic rock formations.
Victoria Harbour
During specific approach patterns into HKG, a distant but clear view of the Central and Kowloon skylines.
Sit on the left if you want a chance to see the natural, greener side of Hong Kong's territories. For morning flights, this side will have better lighting as the sun is in the east. If the plane approaches from the east into Runway 25, keep your eyes peeled for the dense clusters of skyscrapers in Central.
