Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for viewing the vast expanse of Lake Poyang and the dramatic coastal interface of the East China Sea during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Yangtze River Bends

Watch the massive Yangtze River snake through the landscape with heavy barge traffic visible.

⛵

Lake Poyang

An incredible view of China's largest freshwater lake, featuring seasonal wetlands and expansive water surfaces.

🏔️

Lushan Mountain

The historic and misty peaks of Lushan are visible as the flight passes over northern Jiangxi.

🏘️

Wuyuan Villages

A bird's eye view of the traditional Huizhou-style white-walled architecture in the countryside.

🏖️

East China Sea Coast

As you bank for landing at HYN, the coastline and the Taizhou Bay area come into full view.

The right side is exceptional for water features. Look for the contrast in water levels of Lake Poyang if flying during the wet or dry seasons. Afternoon flights are particularly scenic on this side as the sun sets over the inland mountains, reflecting off the Yangtze and the coastal bays.

🏙️

Wuhan Metropolitan Area

A sprawling view of the 'Chicago of the East' and its dense urban architecture shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Dabie Mountains

The rugged, forested peaks of the Dabie range visible to the north as the plane heads southeast.

🏔️

Mount Huangshan

On clear days, the iconic granite peaks of the Yellow Mountain can be spotted in the distance to the northeast.

💧

Qiandao Lake

The 'Thousand Island Lake' appears as a complex turquoise mosaic of water and small emerald isles.

🌄

Taizhou Mountainous Hinterland

The lush, mist-covered hills of eastern Zhejiang during the descent into Huangyan.

Choose a morning flight to avoid direct sunlight and glare while viewing the Dabie and Huangshan ranges. This side provides the best perspective of the unique topography of Qiandao Lake, which is a major highlight of the mid-flight segment.
