Shenyang Urban Sprawl
View the dense residential and industrial districts of southern Shenyang immediately after takeoff.
Bohai Bay Coastline
Aerial perspective of the coastline where the Liaodong Peninsula meets the Bohai Sea.
Qingdao Coastal Fringe
Distant views of the Qingdao coastline and the busy maritime traffic of the Yellow Sea.
Yancheng Salt Pans
Geometric, multi-colored salt evaporation ponds that create a patchwork quilt effect on the ground.
Coastal Nature Reserves
The vast, shimmering wetlands of the Yancheng National Nature Reserve, home to rare red-crowned cranes.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh western sun. The most spectacular views occur in the final 20 minutes of flight when the salt pans and coastal wetlands become clearly visible. Use a polarizing filter if taking photos to cut through the maritime haze.

Grand Canal Traces

The right side is best for afternoon flights to enjoy the warm 'golden hour' light over the Shandong hills. Keep an eye out for the industrial landscape of Anshan shortly after departure. This side offers more consistent views of the 'Water Country' architecture as you approach Yancheng.
