SHEWEF

Which side of the plane to sit from Taoxian Airport (Shenyang) to Weifang Airport (Weifang)?

Our Recommendation
7.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the rugged Liaodong Peninsula coastline and the expansive waters of the Bohai Sea, providing a scenic transition from the Northeast China Plain to the Shandong Peninsula.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Shenyang Cityscape

Clear views of the Hun River and the dense urban architecture of southern Shenyang during initial ascent.

⛰️

Qianshan Mountains

Distant views of the jagged peaks of the Qianshan range as the flight heads south through Liaoning Province.

🌊

Liaodong Peninsula

A long stretch of coastline where the land meets the Bohai Sea, featuring various bays and small coastal settlements.

🚢

Bohai Sea Shipping

Observation of active maritime traffic including cargo ships and tankers navigating towards the major ports of Dalian and Bayuquan.

🏖️

Laizhou Bay

The picturesque entry point into the Shandong Peninsula, characterized by sandy shores and shallow coastal waters.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Bohai Sea. This side is also better for spotting the unique geography of the Liaodong Peninsula before the over-water segment.

Right Side Highlights

Liaohe River Delta

Views of the sprawling wetlands and agricultural fields where the Liaohe River meets the sea near Panjin.

A patchwork of modern greenhouses and traditional farmland typical of the 'Kite Capital' of China during final descent.

Choose the right side for late afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Liaohe Delta. Keep a close watch during the final 15 minutes of flight for the distinctive grid patterns of coastal salt farms.
