Pudong Skyline
If departing to the north, you may catch a distant glimpse of the Shanghai Tower and Jin Mao Tower.
Donghai Bridge
One of the longest cross-sea bridges in the world, stretching over 32 kilometers across the sea.
Zhejiang Coastline
The rugged and indented coastline of mainland China, featuring numerous bays and inlets.
Central Mountain Range
The majestic, cloud-capped peaks of Taiwan's interior appearing on the horizon during descent.
Taichung Basin
A clear view of the urban sprawl and agricultural patches surrounding the Taichung metropolitan area.
The right side is highly recommended for sunset flights to witness the golden hour over the Chinese mainland. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff for the Donghai Bridge and again about 20 minutes before landing to capture the dramatic contrast of Taiwan's mountains.
