Hlawga Lake
A prominent wildlife park and reservoir visible on the outskirts of Yangon shortly after departure.
Inle Lake
Myanmar's famous highland lake, where you can spot floating gardens and stilt villages during the descent.
Shan Agriculture
A patchwork of colorful red-earth fields and seasonal crops characteristic of the Shan Plateau's fertile soil.
Limestone Karst
Distinctive sharp limestone mountain formations that define the eastern highland landscape.
The right side is the 'money side' for this route. Inle Lake is the highlight; it usually appears 10 to 15 minutes before landing. Avoid late afternoon flights if you want to photograph the lake, as the western sun can create heavy glare on the water's surface.

Yangon North
Aerial perspective of the northern Yangon suburbs and the winding Bago River immediately after takeoff.
Bago Yoma Range
The central forested mountain range of Myanmar stretching northward parallel to the flight path.
Kalaw Highlands
Rugged limestone ridges and pine-covered hills as the aircraft enters the elevated Shan State territory.
Sit on the left side during morning flights to keep the sun behind you for better visibility. This side is ideal for observing the dramatic transition from the flat Irrawaddy Delta region to the mountainous Shan Plateau.
