WUHPUS

Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most diverse geographic views, including the intricate meanders of the Yangtze River and the spectacular archipelago of South Korea's southern coast.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Yangtze River Confluence

Witness the massive Yangtze and Han rivers meeting in Wuhan shortly after takeoff from WUH.

🏙️

Yangtze River Delta

Glimpse the dense urban clusters of Jiangsu province and the intricate network of canals near Suzhou.

🏝️

Dadohaehaesang Archipelago

A stunning view of thousands of rocky, green islands dotting the turquoise waters of the South Korean coastline.

🌾

Nakdong River Delta

The fertile agricultural plains and wetlands where South Korea's longest river meets the sea near Busan.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. The most scenic part occurs about 30-40 minutes before landing when crossing the Korean coastline. Use a polarized filter for photos to cut through the haze over the East China Sea.

Right Side Highlights
7.6
⛰️

Dabie Mountains

The rugged, forested peaks of the Dabie mountain range visible to the south during the initial cruise phase.

🌉

Hangzhou Bay

On very clear days, the massive span of the Hangzhou Bay Bridge can be spotted to the far south.

🚢

Korea Strait Shipping

Dozens of massive cargo ships and tankers queued up to enter the Port of Busan, one of the world's busiest.

🏙️

Busan City Skyline

A panoramic view of Busan's dense high-rises and the iconic Gwangan Bridge during the final approach bank.

Choose the right side for late afternoon flights to enjoy a sunset over the water. If the aircraft lands from the south (Runway 36), the right side provides the most direct view of the Busan harbor and metropolitan area.
