Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the Yangtze River upon departure, the sweeping coastline of the Bohai Sea, and the industrial heartlands of Liaoning province.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Yangtze River Curves

Exceptional views of the winding Yangtze and its convergence with the Han River.

⛰️

Dabie Mountains

Aerial perspective of the lush, green Dabie Mountains which serve as a major watershed in Central China.

🌉

Yellow River Crossing

Look for the iconic sediment-heavy yellow waters of the Huanghe as you cross into Northern China.

⚓

Bohai Gulf Coast

Potential glimpses of the coastline near Tianjin and the busy shipping lanes of the Bohai Sea.

🏢

Shenyang Metro

A grand view of Shenyang's skyline, one of the largest industrial and cultural hubs in the Northeast.

The right side is ideal for morning flights as the sun rises over the Yellow Sea, providing excellent lighting for photos. Look for the distinct color change of the Yellow River. During winter, watch for the snow-covered landscapes of Jilin province as you approach Harbin.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Wuhan Skyline

View the sprawling 'Three Cities of Wuhan' and the massive Yangtze River bridges immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

Taihang Mountains

Distant views of the rugged Taihang mountain range that separates the Loess Plateau from the North China Plain.

🏯

Beijing Urban Area

On clear days, the western outskirts of Beijing and the surrounding mountainous terrain are visible.

⛰️

Yan Mountains

Fly over the dramatic peaks of the Yan Mountains, where segments of the Great Wall are situated.

🌾

Songliao Plain

The vast, fertile black soil farmlands of Northeast China create a geometric patchwork of colors.

Choose this side for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the North China Plain. Keep a sharp eye out for the reservoir systems north of Beijing. Seasonal visibility is best in autumn when the air is crisp and clear.
