Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the majestic Mount Huangshan during the descent, along with potential glimpses of the Shanghai metropolis and Lake Tai.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Jirisan National Park

The sprawling peaks of mainland South Korea's tallest mountain range visible to the north after takeoff.

🏙️

Shanghai Skyline

On clear days, the distant skyscrapers of Pudong and the winding Huangpu River are visible to the north as you cross the coast.

🌊

Lake Tai (Taihu)

A massive, shallow freshwater lake near Suzhou, famous for its limestone rocks and scenic beauty.

⛰️

Mount Huangshan

The legendary 'Yellow Mountain' featuring jagged granite peaks and ancient pines, often shrouded in a 'Sea of Clouds'.

🏮

Tunxi Old Street

The historic center of Huangshan city, characterized by black-and-white Huizhou architecture, visible during final approach.

The right side is essential for seeing Mount Huangshan (Yellow Mountain). During the descent into TXN, the pilot often banks in a way that provides a panoramic view of the granite spires. Seasonal tip: In winter, the snow-capped peaks of Huangshan are breathtaking. Avoid this side on late afternoon flights if you want to avoid direct sunlight and window glare.

🌊

Nakdong River Delta

Aerial view of the intricate river branches and wetlands surrounding Gimhae Airport immediately after takeoff.

🏝️

Dadohaehaesang National Park

The 'Sea of Many Islands' along Korea's southwestern coast, featuring thousands of forested islets in turquoise waters.

🚢

Busan New Port

A massive industrial marvel with rows of container ships and giant cranes visible as you head toward the sea.

🌉

Hangzhou Bay Bridge

One of the world's longest sea-crossing bridges, visible as a thin white line spanning the muddy waters of the bay.

🏞️

Xin'an River

The emerald-green river that winds through the Huizhou landscape, leading toward the city of Huangshan.

Sit on the left for the best views of the Korean archipelago shortly after departure. If flying in the afternoon, this side will be away from the direct glare of the sun, making photography of the coastal islands and the Xin'an River much easier. Look for the distinct 'S' curves of the river during the final 15 minutes of the flight.
