Mount Tai (Taishan)
The most sacred of the Five Great Mountains of China, visible south of Jinan shortly after takeoff.
Lake Hongze
A massive freshwater lake in Jiangsu province known for its unique 'suspended lake' structure.
Grand Canal
Sections of the world's longest artificial river, still buzzing with barge traffic.
Suzhou and Wuxi
The dense, interconnected urban sprawl of the 'Venice of the East' and surrounding water towns.
Shanghai Puxi & Bund
If landing from the west, views of the historic Bund and the dense Puxi district urban core.
Look out within the first 10-15 minutes of flight to spot the rugged peaks of Mount Tai. In the afternoon, the sun will be on this side, so have your shades ready. The transition from the yellow-hued North China Plain to the green, canal-filled Yangtze Delta is most apparent from this side.
