Taiwan West Coast
Aerial views of the urban corridors between Taipei and Kaohsiung against the backdrop of the Central Range.
South China Sea
Deep blue oceanic vistas dotted with international cargo ships and remote coral atolls.
Da Nang Shoreline

Mekong River
The massive waterway snaking through the Indochina peninsula as the flight crosses from Vietnam to Laos.
Samut Prakan Canals
Intricate networks of traditional canals and modern industrial zones on the southeast approach to Bangkok.
Morning flights are ideal to avoid the harsh glare of the sun which will be on the opposite side. Look out for the Vietnamese coast approximately two hours after departure from Taipei. If landing at Suvarnabhumi from the south, this side provides the best view of the Gulf of Thailand coastline.
