The scenic mountain range that forms the eastern boundary of the Chengdu metropolitan area.
Chengdu Urban Core
Detailed views of the Tianfu New Area and the sprawling urban expansion of Chengdu during the final approach.
The right side is essential for the Macau view; choose an 'F' seat. During winter, look for the 'sea of clouds' over the Sichuan Basin. Best views are during morning flights when the sun illuminates the mountains from the east.
