Search flights from SHE to HET
Liaohe Basin
The intricate network of the Liao River winding through the fertile agricultural heartland of Northeast China.
Horqin Grasslands
The beginning of the vast Mongolian steppe landscapes, showing a mosaic of grasslands and sandy patches.
Arid Plateau Transition
A dramatic rise in elevation featuring distinct semi-arid geological formations and extensive wind power farms.
Daqing Mountains
Massive granite peaks that dominate the northern horizon, providing a stunning backdrop during the descent into Hohhot.
Choose this side to witness the 'plateau rise' where the landscape steps up toward the Gobi. Afternoon flights are ideal as the low sun enhances the golden hues of the grassland and the sharp shadows of the Daqing peaks.

Shenyang Urban Core
High-altitude view of the Hun River and the dense central business district shortly after takeoff from Taoxian.
Yanshan Ridges
Continuous mountain ranges marking the southern transition between the coastal plains and the northern plateau.
Great Wall Fragments
Faint sections of ancient fortifications snaking along the high ridges of the border between Hebei and Inner Mongolia.
