Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side is preferred for the final descent into Dayong, providing a potential view of the spectacular Tianmen Mountain and the unique karst topography that makes Zhangjiajie famous.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Tamsui River Estuary

Aerial view of the northern tip of Taiwan and the Tamsui River meeting the sea right after takeoff.

🚢

Fuzhou Port

Observation of the busy shipping activity near the mouth of the Min River in Fujian province.

💧

Poyang Lake

Distant views of China's largest freshwater lake to the north as the plane transits over Jiangxi.

🏙️

Nanchang Skyline

The dense urban sprawl and skyscrapers of Nanchang, the capital of Jiangxi province.

🪨

Tianmen Mountain

The breathtaking limestone cliffs and the famous natural arch of Heaven's Gate visible during the descent into DYG.

The approach into Dayong Airport is one of the most scenic in China. Keep your camera ready as the plane descends through the clouds, as the karst pillars appear suddenly. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the limestone formations on the right.

🌊

Taiwan Strait

Expansive views of the turquoise waters separating Taiwan from the mainland shortly after departure.

🏙️

Quanzhou Coastline

The sprawling industrial and historic port city of Quanzhou visible as you cross the Fujian coast.

⛰️

Southern Wuyi Range

The southern ridges of the Wuyi Mountains, known for their deep green tea plantations and jagged peaks.

🏞️

Xiang River

A major tributary of the Yangtze River winding through the central Hunan landscape.

🌫️

Hunan Highlands

Rolling mist-covered hills and terraced farmland typical of south-central China's rural interior.

Choose a window seat behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the winding river systems in Jiangxi and Hunan. Best viewed during morning flights when the air is clearest and the sun is behind the aircraft.
