Tonle Sap Lake
A breathtaking view of Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake, particularly impressive during the monsoon season.
Cambodian Lowlands
A vast tapestry of emerald-green rice paddies and rural villages stretching toward the horizon.
Aranyaprathet Border
The visible transition between Cambodia and Thailand, marked by changing agricultural patterns and road networks.
Khao Yai Foothills
The southern fringes of Thailand's famous national park and mountainous terrain appearing to the north.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the harsh sun while viewing Tonle Sap. As you approach Don Mueang, this side often provides a great view of the airport's unique layout, including the golf course situated between the runways.
