From a technological aspect, the new season surpasses the previous one by using images taken from satellites for the first time, apart from those taken by 4K ultra high-definition cameras, to enable the audience to have a broader view of some of the most stunning landscape throughout the country, including the Zhoushan Archipelago.

The beautiful scenery of Zhoushan captured aroused the proud feelings of local residents, who posted messages on internet showing excitement about being featured and recommending local delicacies and scenic spots. Netizens from other parts of the country expressed their longing for a vacation to the island city, and those that have been there recalled their unforgettable moments in the city.

Aerial China saw its first season draw over 300 million viewers from more than 500 broadcasts across a number of TV channels.

The second season of the series debuted on China Central Television's flagship CCTV-1 channel and documentary channel CCTV-9 on March 3, and is scheduled to air on four other channels before ending on March 17.

Unlike most nature-themed documentaries, which shoot scenes from the ground, this series captures the vast diversity and spectacular beauty of China's landscapes from a bird's-eye view.

In the space of more than a year, the crew traveled over 200,000 kilometers and used 12 helicopters and at least 70 drones to shoot in six provinces - Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Gansu, Sichuan and Zhejiang - as well as the Inner Mongolia autonomous region.

Each province or region has an entire episode devoted to it, all spanning 50 minutes.
