WUZ → ZUH
Which side of the plane to sit from Wuzhou Changzhoudao Airport (Wuzhou) to Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the dramatic karst-like hills of eastern Guangxi, the famous scenic areas of Zhaoqing, and a panoramic perspective of the sprawling Pearl River Delta urban centers.
Wuzhou River Confluence
View the merging of the Xun and Gui rivers at Wuzhou shortly after takeoff, forming the mighty Xi River.
Dinghu Mountain
Look for the lush, forested peaks of the Dinghu Mountain Nature Reserve, one of the first in China, near Zhaoqing.
Foshan Urban Sprawl
As the flight progresses, witness the incredible density and industrial infrastructure of the Foshan and Guangzhou outskirts.
Pearl River Delta Bridges
Spot numerous large-scale bridge crossings spanning the various branches of the Pearl River network.
Guangzhou Skyline (Distance)
On clear days, the iconic Canton Tower and the skyscrapers of Zhujiang New Town may be visible on the distant horizon.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see the urban density of the PRD. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you (to the west/right), illuminating the landscape and mountains of Zhaoqing clearly. Watch for the change from rural Guangxi hills to the flat, canal-crossed delta plains.
Xi River Valley
Follow the winding path of the Xi River as it flows through the valley towards the South China Sea.
Jiangmen Kaiping Diaolou
While small from high up, the unique village architecture and watchtowers of the Jiangmen region dot the landscape.
Mount Xiqiao
Spot the extinct volcano Mount Xiqiao, known for its 72 peaks and significant cultural landmarks.
Zhuhai West District
As you descend into ZUH, enjoy views of the expanding coastal developments and islands in the Jinwan district.
Macau Horizon
During the final approach, the high-rise casinos and the Macau Tower are often visible to the southeast across the water.
The right side is excellent for seeing the river geography and the transition into coastal Zhuhai. If landing from the north, you'll get a great view of the Jinwan coastline. Be aware that morning flights may experience some glare from the sun on this side.
