Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of China's inland geography, featuring the massive Taihu Lake, the historic Grand Canal, and the sacred peaks of Mount Tai during the descent.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Zhejiang Highlands

Rugged green mountain ranges and deep river valleys shortly after taking off from Wenzhou.

🌊

Taihu Lake

A breathtaking view of one of China's largest freshwater lakes near the Suzhou-Wuxi corridor.

🌉

Yangtze River Crossing

Aerial perspective of the wide Yangtze River and the massive bridges connecting southern and northern Jiangsu.

🛶

The Grand Canal

Segments of the world's longest artificial waterway visible as it cuts through the flat Jiangsu plains.

🏔️

Mount Tai (Taishan)

The most sacred of China's Five Great Mountains, standing prominently to the south of Jinan city.

Book an 'A' seat for the best views. Mount Tai usually appears on the left roughly 15 to 20 minutes before landing. For morning flights, this side is ideal as the sun will be behind you, reducing window glare and providing clear views of the terrain.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏝️

Wenzhou Archipelago

Views of the rocky islands and the mouth of the Oujiang River immediately after departure.

🚢

Yangtze River Estuary

The massive scale of the river meeting the East China Sea, often filled with commercial shipping vessels.

🌬️

Offshore Wind Farms

Extensive clusters of white wind turbines along the coast of the Yellow Sea in northern Jiangsu.

🌾

Jiangsu Delta Plains

Intricate patterns of fish ponds and geometric agricultural fields characteristic of the region.

🌆

Jinan Urban Sprawl

Views of the expanding 'City of Springs' and the nearby Yellow River as the plane turns for its final approach.

Sit on the right side for coastal views. Be aware that on morning flights, the sun will be on this side of the aircraft, which can make photography difficult. Evening flights are recommended for this side to catch the sun reflecting off the Yellow Sea.
