Immediate views of Busan's harbor, the Gwangan Bridge, and the rocky cliffs of the southern coast.
Dadohaehaesang
The 'Sea of Many Islands' National Park, featuring a stunning labyrinth of green islets against turquoise water.
Hangzhou Bay Bridge
One of the world's longest trans-oceanic bridges, easily identifiable by its distinct S-shape and central service island.
Hangzhou Cityscape
Views of the rapidly developing Binjiang district and the historic West Lake area as the plane descends.
The right side is highly recommended for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the East China Sea. During descent, stay alert for the Hangzhou Bay Bridge, which is a major geographic landmark on this route. Winter months typically provide the clearest visibility of the Korean archipelago.
