TYN โ†’ CGQ

Which side of the plane to sit from Taiyuan Wusu Airport (Taiyuan) to Longjia Airport (Changchun)?

Our Recommendation
8.4

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers a more diverse visual palette, including the high-density urban sprawl of the North China Plain, the shimmering coastline of the Bohai Gulf, and the industrial landscape of Shenyang.

Panjin Wetlands

A glimpse of the famous red-tinted coastal marshes near the mouth of the Liao River.

Shenyang Metro Area

A comprehensive aerial view of Northeast China's largest urban center during the mid-flight phase.

Sit here for sunrise views on morning flights. During winter months, you can often see sea ice forming along the Bohai coastline. On descent, this side typically offers a superior view of Changchunโ€™s southern city layout and the Jilin automotive industry parks.

Choose this side for late afternoon flights to enjoy the warm sunset light hitting the mountain ridges. It is also the better side for viewing the expansive Great Wall segments along the border of Shanxi and Hebei when visibility is high.
