Yangtze River Loops
Shortly after takeoff, see the massive Yangtze River winding through the Jianghan Plain east of Wuhan.
Poyang Lake
Depending on the specific airway, look for the vast expanse of China's largest freshwater lake in Jiangxi province.
Wuyi Mountains
Fly over the eastern ridges of this UNESCO World Heritage site, known for its jagged peaks and lush greenery.
Fujian Coastline
As the plane descends, enjoy views of the rugged coastline and the numerous islands dotting Meizhou Bay.
Quanzhou Bay
A beautiful aerial view of the bay and the Quanzhou Bay Bridge as you align for the final approach into JJN.
Choose a window seat on the left (Seat A) to avoid the direct afternoon sun while flying south. For the best photography of Poyang Lake, mid-morning flights offer the most vibrant blue hues. Watch for the massive bridge infrastructure as you approach the coast near Putian and Quanzhou.
