Wanlv Lake
The most stunning feature of the route; a massive, deep-blue reservoir near Heyuan known for its crystal-clear water.
Heyuan Cityscape
A clear view of the city layout where the Dong River and Xinfeng River converge.
Dongguan Industrial Hub
Witness the vast manufacturing landscapes and infrastructure that connect Dongguan to Shenzhen.
Pearl River Estuary
During the final approach into SZX, see the expansive water, cargo ships, and the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Link construction.
The right side is highly recommended for the view of Wanlv Lake shortly after takeoff. For the best experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you. This side also offers the best view of the Pearl River Delta's industrial scale and the water traffic in the estuary as you land at Bao'an Airport.

View the rolling green peaks of the Lianhua mountains that dominate eastern Guangdong's landscape.
Longgang Urban Center
As the plane descends, observe the dense urban density and skyscrapers of Shenzhen's eastern districts.
Shenzhen Universiade Center
Spot the distinct 'crystal' shaped stadium architecture located in the Longgang District.
Futian Skyline
On clear days, see the distant Ping An Finance Center and the primary Shenzhen business district during the turn.
Choose the left side if you are interested in seeing the rugged mountain terrain of eastern Guangdong and the sprawling urban expansion of Shenzhen's residential and industrial sectors. Best viewed during the late afternoon when the sun is on the opposite side, providing clear, shadow-rich views of the mountains.
