Which side of the plane to sit from Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (Wuhan) to Liuzhou Bailian Airport (Liuzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic scenery, featuring the expansive Dongting Lake and the world-famous Karst limestone formations as you enter the Guangxi region.
Yangtze River Bend
The mighty Yangtze River snaking westward away from the Wuhan city center.
Dongting Lake
The massive expanse of China's second-largest freshwater lake, visible about 25 minutes into the flight.
Wuling Mountains
Deep valleys and jagged peaks of the western Hunan mountain ranges.
Guangxi Karst Landscape
The iconic 'sugarloaf' limestone hills that emerge as the flight enters northern Guangxi.
Terraced Valleys
Pockets of traditional agriculture carved into the steep hillsides approaching Liuzhou.
The right side is superior for geographic diversity. Look for Dongting Lake roughly 150km south of Wuhan. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting on the Karst peaks, creating long, dramatic shadows across the valleys.
Wuhan Urban Core
Aerial view of the sprawling metropolis and the East Lake scenic area immediately after takeoff.
Mufu Mountains
Rugged green ridgelines defining the border between Hubei and Hunan provinces.
High-Speed Rail Artery
Visuals of the major Beijing-Guangzhou railway lines cutting through the rural landscape.
Xiang River
A major tributary of the Yangtze winding through the lush Hunan countryside.
Liuzhou City Loop
Views of the Liu River as it creates a dramatic horseshoe bend around the city center during landing.
Sit on the left for the best views of Liuzhou's unique city layout during the final approach. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the glare of the eastern sun reflecting off the cabin windows.
