Which side of the plane to sit from Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (Shenzhen) to Taichung Ching Chuang Kang Airport (Taichung)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the Hong Kong skyline in the distance, and a dramatic approach over the central plains and mountains of Taiwan.
HK-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge
The world's longest sea-crossing bridge stretching across the Pearl River Delta.
Hong Kong International Airport
An excellent top-down view of Chek Lap Kok airport and the busy cargo terminals.
Lantau Island
Look for the Tian Tan Buddha and the mountainous terrain of Hong Kong's largest island.
Changhua Wind Farm
Hundreds of offshore wind turbines along the Taiwan coast as you approach the island.
Central Mountain Range
The majestic, cloud-shrouded peaks of central Taiwan serve as a backdrop during the descent.
The right side is the clear winner for landmark spotting. Choose an afternoon flight for the best lighting on the Taiwan mountains, but be prepared for some sun glare while over the Strait. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff for the bridge and HKIA views.
Shenzhen Skyline
Bird's eye view of the Nanshan district and the towering skyscrapers of Shenzhen shortly after takeoff.
Daya Bay Coastline
The rugged industrial and natural coastline of Huizhou and Shanwei as the flight moves eastward.
Penghu Islands
Small volcanic islands scattered in the Taiwan Strait, visible depending on the specific air corridor used.
Taichung Port
One of the largest commercial ports in Taiwan, visible just before the final descent into RMQ.
Sit on the left if you want a better view of the Chinese mainland's evolving coastline. For morning flights, this side will be shaded, making photography easier without glare. Watch for the Penghu archipelago about mid-way through the flight.
