Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers spectacular views of the Wuyi Mountains and the iconic karst landscape of Guizhou, culminating in a beautiful approach over Dianchi Lake.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Wenzhou Bay

Stunning views of the East China Sea coastline and Oujiang River mouth immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Wuyi Mountains

Crossing the rugged green peaks of northern Fujian, a region famous for its scenic UNESCO-listed terrain.

🗿

Guizhou Karst

Dramatic limestone peak forests and deep river valleys characteristic of the South China Karst topography.

💧

Dianchi Lake

A grand view of Yunnan's largest freshwater lake, often visible on the left during the descent into Kunming.

Choose a window seat behind the wing to capture the karst clusters of southern Guizhou without obstruction. For the best landing views of Dianchi Lake, evening flights during sunset are particularly breathtaking as the water reflects the sky.

Right Side Highlights
7.6
🏞️

Yandang Mountain

Sharp rhyolite peaks and steep cliffs visible shortly after departing from the Wenzhou area.

🏙️

Changsha City

Aerial perspective of the sprawling urban center of Hunan and the winding Xiang River.

🌉

Guizhou Bridges

Look for some of the world's highest suspension bridges spanning deep mountain gorges in western Guizhou.

🌇

Kunming Skyline

Comprehensive views of the Spring City urban core as the aircraft maneuvers for landing at Changshui.

The right side is excellent for spotting world-class engineering feats like the high-altitude bridges in Guizhou. Early morning flights typically offer the clearest views of the terrain before afternoon haze develops over the plains.
