Blood transported by the pulmonary veins returns to the left atrium of the heart. The pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood away from the lungs.
The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood to the left atrium of the heart.

left atrium
It flows inside the pulmonary veins
Deoxygenated blood travels through the veins called the inferior vena cava and superior vena cave into the right atrium. Blood flows from the right atrium, through a valve and into the right ventricle and into the pulmonary arteries. From the pulmonary arteries the blood is carried to the lungs. So the answer is pulmonary artery.
Blood flows from the right ventricle of the heart into the lungs through the pulmonary arteries that carry deoxygenated blood. From the lungs, oxygenated blood flows through the pulmonary veins to the left atrium of the heart.
Heart and Lungs
heart and lungs
Blood flows to the lungs through the pulmonary trunks which divides into the right and left pulmonary arteries. These transport blood to the air sacs of the lungs, where carbon dioxide in unloaded and oxygen is picked up. Then the blood flows back to the heart by the pulmonary veins.
Low oxygen blood flows out of the heart through the pulmonary semilunar valve and into the pulmonary trunk. From there is goes through the left and right pulmonary arteries into each respective lung.
It flows through the pulmonary artery and towards the lungs where the blood will become oxygenated.
The pulmonary artery sends blood from the heart to the lungs, while the pulmonary vein sends blood from the lungs back into the heart. So yes, pulmonary circulation flows blood through the lungs
The pulmonary arteries carry blood from the heart to the lungs.
The blood flowing through the veins carry the carbon dioxide from the cells of all parts of the body to the heart. Hence we say that the veins transmit the De-oxygenated blood from all parts of the body to the heart. The De-oxygenated blood collected in the heart flows to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. The blood gets oxygenated in the lungs. Then the oxygenated blood flows to the heart through the pulmonary vein. Then the oxygenated blood flows to all parts of the body through the arteries. So blood flows into the heart through the veins, and flows out of the heart through the arteries. Normally the De-oxygenated blood flows through the veins and the oxygenated blood flows through the artery. The only exceptions are the pulmonary artery that transmits de-oxygenated blood from heart to the lungs and the pulmonary vein that transmits oxygenated blood from lungs to heart. This is because blood flows into the heart by veins and flows out of the heart by arteries.
There are many section in the heart, starting with: The Superior Vena Cava, where de-oxygenated blood flows in from the body. From there the blood flows into the Right Atrium, through the Tricuspid Valve and into the Right Ventricle. After the blood is in the Right Ventricle, the blood flows out of the heart through the Inferior Vena Cava and in to the lungs, where it can be oxygenated. Once oxygenated, the blood flows back into the heart through the Pulmonary Artery. From the Pulmonary Artery the blood flows into the Left Atrium, through the Mitral Valve and into the Left Ventricle. From there the blood flows through the Pulmonary Valve to the Aorta and out into the body. The process then starts over from there.
