TYN โ CGQ
Which side of the plane to sit from Taiyuan Wusu Airport (Taiyuan) to Longjia Airport (Changchun)?
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.
Jing-Jin-Ji Urban Fringe
Glimpses of the dense infrastructure and satellite cities surrounding the Beijing-Tianjin corridor.
Bohai Gulf Coast
Excellent views of the Liaodong Bay coastline, featuring industrial ports and the shimmering sea.
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 Changchunโs southern city layout and the Jilin automotive industry parks.
North Taihang Mountains
Dramatic rugged peaks and deep valleys visible shortly after departure from Taiyuan.
Horqin Sandy Land Edge
Unique views of the transition zone between the northern grasslands and desertified regions.
Songnen Plain
Vast, sweeping vistas of the agricultural heartland of Jilin Province as the plane nears its destination.
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.
