Zhejiang Highlands
Dense, mist-covered mountain ranges of southern Zhejiang province visible shortly after takeoff from Hangzhou.
Wenzhou Coastline
The intricate network of islands and bays near Wenzhou as the flight leaves the mainland over the East China Sea.
Xueshan Range
Breathtaking views of Taiwan's second-highest peak, Snow Mountain, visible during the descent into the Taichung Basin.
Taichung Cityscape
A panoramic view of the dense urban grid and high-rises of Taichung city as the plane aligns for its final approach.
Central Mountain Spine
The towering 3,000-meter peaks of Taiwan's interior forming a dramatic backdrop to the eastern horizon.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct western sun glare while capturing the sharp relief of the Taiwan mountains. Look for the 'Sea of Clouds' often trapped against the Xueshan range during spring and autumn. This side is also best for seeing the city center during a standard northern approach to RMQ.

Qiantang River
Immediate views of the massive Qiantang River winding through Hangzhou right after departure.
Taiwan Strait
Witness the heavy maritime traffic of container ships and fishing vessels navigating one of the world's busiest waterways.
Coastal Wind Farms
Huge offshore and onshore wind turbines lining the Miaoli and Taichung coastlines as you descend.
Taichung Harbor
View the massive industrial cranes and shipping containers of one of Taiwan's primary international ports.
Strait Sunset
On late afternoon flights, this side provides an unobstructed view of the sun setting over the water.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to witness spectacular sunsets over the Taiwan Strait. Keep an eye out for the white wind turbines along the coast—they serve as a great visual cue that you are crossing from the sea onto the island. This side is typically quieter visually until the final 15 minutes of the flight.
