Hong Kong Skyline
Clear views of Lantau Island and the distant skyscrapers of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon shortly after departure.
HK-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge
The world's longest sea-crossing bridge is visible spanning the Pearl River Delta waters.
Shenzhen Coastline
The dense urban development and busy ports of Shenzhen and the Dapeng Peninsula.
Tamsui River Mouth
During the descent into Taoyuan, see where the Tamsui River meets the sea near Bali and Tamsui districts.
Yangmingshan National Park
The volcanic mountain clusters of Northern Taiwan visible during the final approach pattern.
Book an 'A' seat for the best coastal views. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be on the right side of the aircraft, preventing glare on your window while looking at the mainland and Hong Kong. During takeoff, look down immediately to see the intricate structure of the Macau International Airport runway built on reclaimed land.

Central Mountain Range
On clear days, the high peaks of Taiwan's central spine appear as a dramatic backdrop during the descent.
Taoyuan Wind Farm
Large offshore and coastal wind turbines lining the coast of Taoyuan as the plane prepares to land.
Choose a 'K' or 'F' seat if you prefer afternoon flights to avoid the direct western sun. This side is better for spotting the silhouette of Taiwan's high mountains during the approach. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of flight for the industrial and coastal scenery of Taoyuan's Guanyin District.
