Xiamen Special Economic Zone

Clear views of Xiamen Island, Gulangyu, and the modern skyline along the Taiwan Strait.

The expansive blue horizon of the strait, often dotted with cargo ships and fishing fleets.

Pingtan Island

The large island south of Fuzhou, visible during the final descent, known for its wind farms.
