WUH → ZUH
Which side of the plane to sit from Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (Wuhan) to Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of China's sacred southern mountains and a more dramatic perspective of the Pearl River Estuary upon arrival in Zhuhai.
Mount Heng (Hengshan)
One of the Five Sacred Mountains of China, recognizable by its majestic peaks in central Hunan province.
Shaoguan Danxia
Unique red sandstone landforms in northern Guangdong, characterized by steep cliffs and unusual rock shapes.
Pearl River Estuary
The vast opening where the Pearl River meets the South China Sea, featuring heavy maritime traffic.
Zhuhai Coastline
Picturesque views of the 'City of Romance' and its coastal roads just before touching down at Jinwan.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as it avoids the direct glare of the sun. Keep a close watch for the red-tinted Danxia mountains in northern Guangdong, which are particularly striking under the golden hour light.
Wuhan Urban Core
Bird's-eye view of the dense Hankou and Wuchang districts immediately after departing WUH.
Yangtze River Bends
The massive, winding waterway as it meanders through the Hubei plains toward the east.
Luoxiao Mountain Range
Dense, forest-covered peaks along the Jiangxi-Hunan border during the mid-flight cruise.
Pearl River Delta Sprawl
An incredible view of the continuous urban landscape of Dongguan and Shenzhen as you descend south.
Select a window seat on the left for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Yangtze River. On clear nights, this side provides an unparalleled view of the illuminated mega-cities of the Pearl River Delta during the descent.
