Which side of the plane to sit from Yaoqiang Airport (Jinan) to Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (Wuhan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the Yellow River's intricate bends early in the flight and provides a spectacular view of the Weishan Lake system and the dramatic confluence of the Han and Yangtze Rivers upon descent into Wuhan.
Yellow River (Huanghe)
Witness the massive, silt-laden river winding through the Shandong plains immediately after departure.
Weishan Lake
The largest freshwater lake in North China, featuring a chain of interconnected lakes and wetlands.
The Grand Canal
Spot sections of the world's longest artificial waterway as it traverses the landscape below.
Western Dabie Mountains
Aerial views of the high peaks and deep valleys that form a natural barrier between provinces.
Yangtze-Han Confluence
On final approach, look for the distinct color difference where the Han River joins the mighty Yangtze in central Wuhan.
The right side is best for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset reflecting off the Yellow River and Weishan Lake. Keep your camera ready during the final 15 minutes of flight for a clear view of Wuhan's dense bridge network and the iconic river junction.
Mount Tai
Visible shortly after takeoff south of Jinan, this sacred peak is one of the Five Great Mountains of China.
Zibo Urban Area
View the sprawling industrial and historical landscape of Zibo as you head south.
Lake Chao
A glimpse of one of China's largest freshwater lakes located in central Anhui province.
Eastern Dabie Mountains
Dense forest cover and rugged ridges marking the transition into the Yangtze River basin.
Wuhan East Lake
As the plane banks for landing, enjoy views of China's largest inner-city lake and the surrounding green lungs.
Choose the left side for an early-flight highlight of Mount Tai. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the glare of the eastern sun, providing crisp views of the sacred mountain and the urban sprawl of Hefei later in the journey.
