Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers the most iconic views of this route, including the vast Poyang Lake and the misty peaks of Lushan National Park as the flight progresses toward Hubei.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🎨

Jingdezhen Region

Fly over the hills surrounding the historic porcelain capital of the world in northern Jiangxi.

🏞️

Lake Poyang

Spectacular views of China's largest freshwater lake, showcasing its unique wetlands and seasonal water levels.

🏔️

Lushan National Park

The famous UNESCO World Heritage mountain range known for its dramatic cliffs and frequent sea of clouds.

🚢

Yangtze River Bends

View the massive 'Mother River' of China as it winds through Jiujiang and enters the Hubei plains.

🏙️

East Lake Wuhan

As the plane turns for Tianhe Airport, see the sprawling East Lake, one of the largest urban lakes in China.

This is the premier side for geography lovers. Poyang Lake is best seen mid-flight; its appearance changes drastically between dry and wet seasons. Try to book a morning flight to avoid the heat haze common in the Yangtze River valley.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Oujiang River Estuary

Dramatic views of the Wenzhou coastline and the winding Oujiang river mouth immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Zhejiang Highlands

Dense, green mountain ridges of western Zhejiang as the plane reaches cruising altitude.

🌾

Gan River Valley

The intricate mosaic of rice paddies and agricultural patterns typical of the Jiangxi plains.

🏙️

Wuhan Optics Valley

The high-tech corridor and modern skyscrapers of southern Wuhan visible during the final descent.

Sit on this side for sunset views if you are on an evening flight. During descent, look for the massive urban sprawl of southern Wuhan. It is generally the 'quieter' side for scenery but offers better lighting in the late afternoon.
