Greater Khingan Southern Tail
The rolling, forested hills marking the southern edge of China's most significant forest range.
Xilin Gol Grassland
Boundless views of high-altitude steppe, appearing as a sea of green in summer or a white expanse in winter.
Yin Mountain Range
The rugged, dark ridges of the Daqing Mountains which act as a natural barrier north of Hohhot.
Wind Farm Clusters
Impressive arrays of white wind turbines dotting the windy plateaus, showcasing the region's green energy focus.
The right side is highly recommended for nature lovers. The highlight is the approach into Hohhot, where the aircraft often flies parallel to the Yin Mountains. For the best lighting on these rocky slopes, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the southern face of the peaks.

Horqin Sandy Land
A complex mosaic of desert dunes and grassland restoration projects visible shortly after departure from Tongliao.
Chifeng City
The urban sprawl of Chifeng and its surrounding unique geological rock formations can often be spotted mid-flight.
Hetao Agriculture
Distinctive geometric patterns of irrigated farmland that define the fertile regions south of the Yin Mountains.
Hohhot Skyline
A clear view of the Inner Mongolian capital's modern architecture and expanding suburbs during the final descent.
Sit on the left if you enjoy urban geography and seeing the transition from the sandy Horqin regions to the developed Hetao plain. For late afternoon flights, this side will be away from the direct sun, providing better conditions for photography of the city during landing.
