Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the massive Lake Tai immediately after departure, followed by the rugged terrain of inland Anhui and Jiangxi, culminating in a spectacular view of the Pearl River Delta architecture.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🛶

Lake Tai (Taihu)

Wuxi's signature geographic feature, visible almost immediately after takeoff with its numerous islands.

🏔️

Huangshan Ranges

On clear days, the distant peaks of the Yellow Mountains can be spotted in southern Anhui province.

💧

Poyang Lake

China's largest freshwater lake appears as a vast silver mirror to the west during the mid-flight segment.

🌃

Pearl River Estuary

The complex network of waterways connecting Dongguan and Guangzhou as you descend into Shenzhen.

🏗️

Shenzhen Skyline

A dense forest of skyscrapers including the Ping An Finance Centre as the plane aligns for landing.

Afternoon flights are ideal for the right side to witness the golden hour over the Pearl River Delta. Be ready with your camera immediately after takeoff from WUX for the best panoramic views of Lake Tai.

Left Side Highlights
7.0
🌊

Qiantang River

Visible shortly after entering Zhejiang airspace, known for the world's largest tidal bore.

⛰️

Wuyi Mountains

A UNESCO World Heritage site known for its dramatic peaks and lush greenery along the Fujian border.

🏙️

Fuzhou Urban Area

The sprawling capital of Fujian province surrounded by mountains and bisected by the Min River.

🚢

Daya Bay

Approaching Shenzhen, you will see the industrial coastline and the busy shipping lanes of the South China Sea.

Opt for an early morning flight to catch the sunrise over the East China Sea. This side is better if you prefer coastal views and want to avoid the direct afternoon sun during the southbound journey.
