Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic transition from the Shandong coastline to the unique silty geography of the Yellow River Delta.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Penglai Coastline

The northern coastal edge of Yantai, featuring ports and maritime activity.

🌊

Bohai Sea

Vast views of Laizhou Bay and the turquoise waters of the Bohai Sea.

📐

Yellow River Delta

The spectacular fan-shaped sediment deposits where the Yellow River meets the ocean.

🧂

Salt Evaporation Ponds

Luminous, multi-colored geometric ponds used for salt production near Dongying.

🌾

Hebei Farm Grids

Intricate agricultural patterns that define the landscape as you cross into Hebei.

For the best views of the Yellow River Delta, monitor the window approximately 20 to 30 minutes after takeoff. Morning flights are recommended on this side to keep the sun behind the aircraft, enhancing the colors of the coastal wetlands.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

Shandong Highlands

Rolling hills and rugged terrain of the inner Shandong Peninsula shortly after departure.

🏙️

Weifang Cityscape

A clear view of the sprawling urban layout of the world's kite capital.

🌊

Yellow River Channel

The winding path of the Yellow River as it flows through the plains towards the sea.

🌆

Shijiazhuang Approach

Aerial views of the dense urban grid and industrial sectors of the Hebei provincial capital.

The left side is ideal for afternoon flights to witness the sun setting over the distant Taihang Mountains during the descent. Look for the distinct change from hilly terrain to the flat North China Plain mid-flight.
