Which side of the plane to sit from Wenzhou Longwan International Airport (Wenzhou) to Nanchang Changbei International Airport (Nanchang)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic granite peaks of Sanqingshan and the expansive waters of Poyang Lake during the descent into Nanchang.
Zhejiang Coastline
A brief but scenic view of the East China Sea and the jagged coastal inlets as the plane climbs to altitude.
Mount Sanqingshan
The UNESCO World Heritage site known for its unique granite pillars and 'sea of clouds' is often visible to the north.
Poyang Lake
As you approach Nanchang, view the southern reaches of China's largest freshwater lake, which changes dramatically with the seasons.
Gan River Crossing
Views of the massive bridges and river traffic along the Gan River as the aircraft lines up for its final approach.
The right side is best for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. Watch specifically about 30-40 minutes into the flight for the distinctive rock formations of Sanqingshan. In summer, the water levels of Poyang Lake are high, while in winter, the exposed mudflats create intricate natural patterns.
Wenzhou Cityscape
Aerial view of the Oujiang River winding through the dense urban center of Wenzhou immediately after takeoff.
Southern Wuyi Mountains
The southern stretches of the Wuyi mountain range, characterized by dense forest cover and sharp ridgelines.
Jiangxi Agricultural Basins
Vivid green rice paddies and traditional rural settlements scattered throughout the valleys of eastern Jiangxi.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during midday flights. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff to capture the complex intersection of the mountains and the Oujiang River delta. During winter, look for frost-covered peaks in the higher elevations of the Wuyi range.
