I am a big fan of scene outside aircraft, especially when it is taking off. No matter how many times I take flight, I always push my nose to the window to see what is going on outside.

The city looks amazing from above. Let me share with you my favorite views.

Below should be A30 - the ring road outside A20 (the outer ring)

There are golf outside the Pudong Airport - it is just completed, and I cannot find it on Google Map - waiting for the next update.

The viaduct at the right bottom is A20 and the Yanggao South Road. I can see my house in this picture.

The imagine below is not clear, because of the dusty air - I used "I'm feeling lucky" button in Picasa. If the air is clearer, Shanghai is a great city - but it seems we don't have any bird-view photo of Shanghai like this - never saw one.

Please pay attention to the high building cluster in the middle right area - it is Lujiazui.

In the image below, you can see Shanghai Stadium, and the Shanghai South Station.

Before airplane left Shanghai, we can finally see the runway of Hong Qiao Airport.
