Lake Taihu
Shortly after departure, view the southern expanse of one of China's largest and most famous freshwater lakes.
Wuyi Mountains
Fly over the rugged, UNESCO-listed peaks of the Wuyi range known for its mist-covered tea plantations.
Hong Kong Skyline
On the descent, enjoy a spectacular view of the skyscrapers and mountainous terrain of Lantau Island.
HZMB Bridge
A clear aerial perspective of the world's longest sea-crossing bridge stretching across the Lingdingyang channel.
Pearl River Estuary
The intricate network of islands and shipping lanes where the Pearl River meets the South China Sea.
For the best views of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge, sit in the front half of the cabin to avoid wing obstruction. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the Pearl River Delta without glare. Watch for the sharp turn the aircraft often makes to align with Macau's offshore runway.

Pearl River Megacities
As you enter Guangdong, witness the incredible urban density of Huizhou and Dongguan.
Macau Cotai Strip
During the final approach, see the massive casino complexes and the 'Venetian' skyline from a unique angle.
The right side is excellent for observing the rapid urbanization of the Pearl River Delta. In winter months, look for the 'sea of clouds' over the mountains of Jiangxi and Anhui. If the flight lands from the north, the right side offers a direct look at the historic Macau Peninsula and its traditional architecture.
