Our Recommendation
8.4

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior aerial perspective of China's eastern coastline, including the Yellow River Delta and the stunning island clusters of the Zhoushan Archipelago as you approach the southeast.

Left Side Highlights
8.4
🌊

Bohai Gulf Coast

Shortly after departure, view the coastline where the North China Plain meets the Bohai Sea.

🚢

Yellow River Delta

Observe the distinct sediment-heavy waters where the Yellow River empties into the sea near Dongying.

🌉

Yangtze River Delta

A massive sprawl of bridges, shipping lanes, and urban density near the mouth of China's longest river.

🏝️

Zhoushan Archipelago

Hundreds of small, emerald-green islands dotting the East China Sea as the flight path moves south.

🏙️

Wenzhou Bay

Views of the Oujiang River mouth and the complex bridge networks connecting Wenzhou's coastal districts.

Morning flights are ideal for the left side to avoid direct afternoon sun glare. Look for the sharp contrast in water color at the Yellow River mouth. During winter, the air is often clearer for spotting distant offshore islands.

Right Side Highlights
7.6
🏙️

Beijing Daxing Hub

Pass close to the 'Starfish' design of Daxing International Airport shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Mount Tai (Taishan)

On clear days, the sacred granite peaks of Shandong's most famous mountain are visible to the west.

🏞️

Lake Taihu

The expansive, shimmering waters of China's third-largest freshwater lake located near the border of Jiangsu.

🌾

Zhejiang River Valleys

The landscape shifts from flat plains to lush, terraced hills as you enter northern Zhejiang province.

⛰️

Yandang Mountains

Spectacular jagged rhyolite peaks and deep valleys typical of the Wenzhou hinterland during the final descent.

The right side is perfect for late afternoon flights to catch the 'Golden Hour' light hitting the Yandang Mountains. Keep your eyes peeled for the ancient Grand Canal sections visible in the Jiangsu region.
