Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Qinling Mountains, the Han River valley, and the expansive Danjiangkou Reservoir area.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Qinling Core Peaks

Spectacular views of the rugged, high-altitude ridges that serve as China's natural north-south climate divider.

💧

Danjiangkou Reservoir

The massive, bright blue expanse of the reservoir that serves as a primary source for the South-to-North Water Diversion Project.

🌊

Han River Meanders

Watch the winding path of the Han River as it carves through deep mountain valleys towards the southeast.

🏞️

Anhui Wetlands

Lush, water-rich landscapes and river networks typical of the Huai River basin as you approach Fuyang.

The Qinling transit is the highlight; sit behind the wing for unobstructed views of the mountain folds. Mid-morning flights provide excellent cross-lighting that emphasizes the sharp terrain relief. Watch for the Danjiangkou Reservoir roughly halfway through the flight.

🏙️

Xi'an Urban Fringe

Aerial views of the rapidly expanding Guanzhong urban cluster and the Wei River basin shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Qinling Northern Slopes

Observation of the abrupt transition where the Guanzhong Plain meets the steep northern face of the Qinling range.

🌾

Henan Agricultural Mosaic

Vast, intricate patterns of central Chinese farmland and small rural settlements as the plane crosses into the plains.

Look out early for the silhouette of the Wei River. For photography, a morning flight prevents glare from the southern sun, making the complex textures of the agricultural plains more distinct.
