ZUHMXZ

Which side of the plane to sit from Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai) to Meixian Airport (Meixian)?

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point of the massive infrastructure projects in the Pearl River Estuary, including the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, and stunning coastal views of Shenzhen and Daya Bay.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🌉

Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge

An incredible top-down view of the world's longest sea-crossing bridge snaking across the blue waters.

🚢

Shenzhen Bay

The busy maritime corridors and the Shenzhen Bay Bridge connecting the mainland to Hong Kong's New Territories.

🌊

Daya Bay Coastline

Dramatic rugged coastlines and the prominent industrial silhouette of the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant.

🏞️

Meijiang River

The winding river paths that define the Hakka cultural landscape as the descent into Meixian begins.

This side is optimal for morning flights to avoid the harsh direct glare of the sun. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff from ZUH, as the bridge infrastructure appears quickly. In spring, look for the 'Sea of Clouds' effect over the South China Sea.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Macao & Zhuhai Skyline

Aerial views of the Cotai Strip casinos and the dense urban border between Macao and Zhuhai.

🏢

Shenzhen CBD

The towering skyscrapers of central Shenzhen, including the Ping An Finance Centre, visible as you fly northeast.

⛰️

Huizhou Mountain Ranges

The transition from urban sprawl to the lush, rolling green peaks of central Guangdong province.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing for unobstructed views of the cityscapes. On evening flights, the setting sun will illuminate the urban glass towers on this side, creating a golden-hour glow over the Pearl River Delta.
