Which side of the plane to sit from Yangzhou Taizhou Airport (Yangzhou) to Taiping Airport (Harbin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior mix of coastal panoramas, island chains in the Bohai Sea, and the winding Songhua River during the descent into Harbin.
Shandong Coastline
Stunning views of the Yellow Sea coast, including the rugged cliffs and beaches near Qingdao and Yantai.
Miaodao Islands
A beautiful chain of islands stretching across the Bohai Strait, visible as the flight crosses from Shandong to Liaoning.
Dalian Peninsula
The southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, showcasing the busy ports and coastal geography of Dalian.
Songhua River Meanders
The iconic winding loops of the Songhua River as the aircraft aligns for its final approach into Harbin.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights when the sun is in the west, perfectly illuminating the coastline and the islands of the Bohai Sea. During the descent into Harbin, look for the intricate patterns of the Songhua River. In late autumn or winter, the ice formations on the river are particularly striking from above.
Yangzhou Urban Grid
Clear views of the ancient Grand Canal crossing through the modern city layout of Yangzhou shortly after takeoff.
Central Shandong Highlands
The rugged, mountainous terrain of central Shandong province, offering a stark contrast to the surrounding plains.
Shenyang Industrial Hub
Aerial perspective of one of Northeast China's largest industrial and urban centers as you pass through Liaoning.
Songnen Plain
The vast, flat agricultural heartland of the Northeast, which transforms into a white expanse during winter months.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the rising sun. In winter, this side provides excellent views of the vast, snow-covered plains of Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces. Keep an eye out for the frozen Liao River during the mid-flight segment.
