Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers spectacular views of Taiwan's Central Mountain Range during the initial ascent and better overall lighting for photography on typical daytime flights heading north-northwest.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Central Mountain Range

Stunning views of Taiwan's high-altitude peaks immediately after taking off from Kaohsiung.

🏝️

Kinmen Islands

A unique aerial perspective of the islands situated just off the coast of Xiamen.

🌲

Jiangxi Highlands

Lush forest canopy and rolling green hills as the flight crosses into Jiangxi province.

🌆

Changsha Cityscape

Panoramic views of the urban expansion and high-rises on the eastern side of the city during descent.

Sit on the right side for morning departures to catch the sunrise or to avoid direct glare on afternoon flights. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff to capture Taiwan's jagged mountain backbone.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Taiwan Strait

The vast blue channel separating the island from the mainland, often dotted with cargo ships.

🏙️

Quanzhou Harbor

A major coastal entry point into Fujian province featuring busy maritime infrastructure.

⛰️

Wuyishan National Park

Distant views of the famous jagged peaks and deep tea-growing valleys of Fujian.

Xiang River

The primary waterway of Hunan province winding through the landscape during the final approach.

Choose the left side for evening flights to witness the sunset over mainland China. It is also the best side to view the dramatic transition from the sea to the hilly terrain of Fujian.
