Search flights from NGB to KWL
Ningbo City Center
Clear views of the urban landscape and the confluence of the three major rivers at the start of the journey.
Gan River Tributaries
Intricate networks of waterways and agricultural basins that characterize the Jiangxi province landscape.
Guilin Karst Peaks
The world-famous limestone formations appearing like stone forests during the descent into Liangjiang.
Li River Landscape
Aerial perspective of the meandering river that inspired centuries of traditional Chinese ink paintings.
The right side is essential for the iconic Guilin approach. To see the karst peaks clearly, avoid the wing area (rows 10-22 on most narrow-body jets). Late afternoon flights offer dramatic shadows that emphasize the verticality of the limestone towers.

Observation of the lush, forested peaks forming the natural border between Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces.
