Taihang Mountains

Rugged, steep-walled canyons and peaks marking the edge of the Loess Plateau.

🌾

Central Plains

Vast, intricate patterns of agricultural land across one of China's most fertile regions.

🏞️

Dabie Mountains

Green, rolling peaks as the aircraft descends towards the Hubei border.

For the best photography, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you when viewing the Taihang Mountains. Look out for the massive Yellow River bridge infrastructure about 35 minutes into the flight. In winter, the snow-capped Taihang range is particularly stunning.
