Sobaek Mountain Range
Deep ridges and valleys of the central mountain chain that forms the backbone of the country.
Daegu Metropolis
A sprawling view of the city nestled within a natural basin surrounded by high mountains.
Lotte World Tower
The 123-story skyscraper stands out as a massive silver needle on the eastern edge of Seoul.
Seoul City Center
Panoramic views of the dense urban fabric, including Namsan Tower and the Han River bridges.
Gyeongbu Expressway
Follow the primary historical highway route of South Korea visible between the mountain passes.
The right side is the 'landmark side' for this route. In winter, the mountains are often snow-capped, providing a dramatic contrast. Try to book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, which illuminates the Seoul skyline perfectly for photos. Ask for a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze distorting the view of the Lotte World Tower.

Nakdong River Estuary
Vibrant views of South Korea's longest river meeting the sea right after takeoff from Busan.
Yellow Sea Coastline
Distant views of the jagged western coastline and the numerous islands dotting the horizon.
Incheon Infrastructure
Glimpses of the massive Incheon Bridge and port facilities as the flight turns toward Gimpo.
Bukhansan National Park
Rugged granite peaks visible to the north of the city during the final descent into Seoul.
Sit on the left during late afternoon flights for a stunning sunset over the Yellow Sea. This side is also better for spotting the unique geography of the western islands. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff to capture the winding Nakdong River delta.
