Which side of the plane to sit from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (Taipei) to Nanchang Changbei International Airport (Nanchang)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic Wuyi Mountains and the sprawling southern expanse of Poyang Lake during the descent into Nanchang.
Taiwan Strait Crossing
Deep blue waters and heavy shipping traffic as you leave the Taiwanese coast.
Wuyi Mountain Range
Stunning views of the UNESCO-listed peaks known for their dramatic crags and tea plantations.
Min River Valley
The winding arterial river of Fujian province cutting through lush green hills.
Poyang Lake
The southern portion of China's largest freshwater lake, showcasing seasonal water level changes.
Nanchang Cityscape
A great view of the Gan River and the historic Tengwang Pavilion as the plane turns for final approach.
Choose an afternoon flight for softer lighting over the Wuyi Mountains. If flying in summer, look for the 'Green Sea' effect of the tea fields. On clear days, the reflection of the sun on Poyang Lake is spectacular shortly before landing.
Northern Taiwan Coastline
Views of the Tamsui River mouth and the rugged northern cliffs of Taiwan shortly after takeoff.
Matsu Islands
A bird's-eye view of the strategic island clusters located just off the coast of Fujian.
Fuzhou Coastal Ports
The busy industrial hubs and intricate coastline of the northern Fujian province.
Taining Danxia Landforms
Unique red sandstone geological formations visible in the distance during mid-flight.
Northern Poyang Wetlands
The complex network of smaller lakes and marshes feeding into the main body of Poyang Lake.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep an eye out for the Matsu Islands about 20-30 minutes after takeoff. This side provides a better view of the northern wetland clusters during the descent.
