Our hotel was to be
the Mumian, which is walkable from the terminal as it is in a shopping centre
complex connected via a bridge to the Terminal.
We had room 8106, and this gave a view of the runways between the terminal & the CSN/CES maintenance hangars. Level 8 is the top floor at this hotel. The hotel is built on the centre line of the terminal & the room was a bit north of where the terminal wing runs out. Photography, not really, a bit too far away IMHO, and also you’re shooting through 2 lots of glass, the rooms double glazing & then there is about a foot gap to another layer of glass. But reading taxing stuff is doable depending on how fast & how close to the fencing it may go
FR24 worked better than expected, stuff dropping in & out & not appearing until sometime after taking off, but with a bit of concentration we managed to identify most. Views of the other parts of this airfield would be possible airside,
The food at the hotel
was Chinese & what we had we was excellent, at the Terminal end of the
shopping centre there is a Family Mart for provisioning
