WUHYTY

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the winding Yangtze River and the impressive urban skylines of Nanjing and Yangzhou during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🐉

Yangtze River Meanders

The 'Long River' stays mostly to the south, showcasing its massive scale and heavy industrial shipping traffic.

🏙️

Nanjing Skyline

On clear days, see the Zifeng Tower and the dense urban core of Jiangsu's capital along the riverbanks.

🌉

Yangzhou Grand Canal

The historic UNESCO World Heritage waterway can be seen cutting through the modern city of Yangzhou.

Choose the right side for the best chance to see the Yangtze River and Nanjing's bridges. For sunset flights, the right side captures the golden reflection off the river water, though window glare can be an issue in the late afternoon.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Dabie Mountains Foothills

View the northern rolling green peaks as the flight passes the border of Hubei and Anhui provinces.

🏙️

Hefei Urban Area

The sprawling capital of Anhui province is often visible to the north mid-flight.

🌊

Gaoyou Lake

A massive freshwater lake appearing on the left just before the final approach into Yangzhou.

The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. It provides a great perspective of the agricultural patterns of the North China Plain and the expansive Gaoyou Lake during the descent into YTY.
