🏙️

Shanghai Megalopolis

Distant views of the sprawling Shanghai urban area and the busy Hangzhou Bay.

🚢

East China Sea Shipping

Observation of one of the world's busiest maritime corridors with numerous cargo vessels.

🏝️

Dadohaehaesang

The stunning 'Sea of Many Islands' National Park featuring thousands of small Korean islets.

🌉

Busan Harbor

Bird's-eye view of the massive container terminals and the Gwangan Bridge on final approach.

🏔️

Geumjeongsan Mountain

The rugged mountain ridges that define the northern backdrop of Busan city.

The right side is essential for the scenic approach into PUS, where you see the jagged coastline of Korea. Morning flights are best for this side to capture the light hitting the islands. Watch for the massive shipyards near Geoje Island just before landing.
