Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of China's largest freshwater lake, Poyang Lake, and the impressive Qiantang River basin, along with the urban skyline of Nanchang.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
💧

Qiantang River Basin

The winding silver ribbon of the Qiantang River flowing through the fertile plains of northern Zhejiang.

🏝️

Qiandao Lake View

Distant views of the 'Thousand Island Lake' and its turquoise waters tucked between mountain ridges.

🌊

Poyang Lake

The massive expanse of China's largest freshwater lake, a critical habitat for migratory birds.

🏙️

Nanchang Skyline

The dense urban center of the Jiangxi provincial capital located along the banks of the Gan River.

⛰️

Mufu Mountains

Lush, high-altitude ridges that provide a dramatic backdrop as the flight enters Hunan airspace.

This side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side, providing clear, shadow-rich views of Poyang Lake. Keep your camera ready about 40-50 minutes into the flight for the best lake vistas.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Siming Mountains

Dense, verdant mountain ranges of eastern Zhejiang visible shortly after takeoff from Ningbo.

🪨

Mount Jianglang

Distinctive Danxia landforms near Jiangshan, featuring three massive vertical rock pillars.

🌾

Jiangxi Farmlands

A patchwork of rice paddies and rural villages scattered across the rolling hills of southern Jiangxi.

🏞️

Luoxiao Mountains

The rugged border range between Jiangxi and Hunan provinces, marking the final descent phase.

Sit toward the rear to avoid wing obstruction of the mountain peaks. Afternoon flights may face significant sun glare on this side; morning flights offer the best lighting for photography of the Zhejiang highlands.
