Dongting Lake
China's second-largest freshwater lake, appearing as a vast silver mirror in the Hunan province.
Hengshan Mountain
One of the Five Great Mountains of China, often surrounded by a sea of clouds.
Nanling National Forest
Dense, mountainous terrain that marks the natural boundary between Central and South China.
Zhuhai Urban Center
Dense coastal development and modern architecture right across the water from Macau.
Cotai Strip
Unrivaled views of the Venetian, Parisian, and Londoner casinos when landing from the north.
The right side is essential for seeing the 'Las Vegas of the East' during landing. Book an afternoon flight for the best lighting over Dongting Lake, but be aware of potential glare. If the plane lands on Runway 16, you will fly directly past the iconic Macau Tower and the bridge network; sit on the right for this scenic entry.

Yangtze River Bends
Visible immediately after takeoff, showcasing the massive river winding through the Hubei plains.
Mufu Mountain Range
Rugged peaks and deep green valleys on the border of Hubei and Jiangxi provinces.
Shenzhen Skyline
On a clear day, the distant high-rises of Shenzhen's Nanshan district appear to the east.
HZMB Bridge
The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge stretching across the Lingdingyang waters during descent.
Pearl River Estuary
Dozens of cargo ships and ferries navigating the busy waters near the delta.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct western sun. This side is excellent for spotting the massive scale of the bridge infrastructure connecting the delta cities. On specific southern approaches, you might catch a glimpse of the Hong Kong International Airport from afar.
