Northern Taiwan Coastline
Spectacular views of the rugged cliffs and emerald waters near Keelung and Yehliu Geopark immediately after takeoff.

Aerial perspectives of the massive urban sprawl and industrial zones of Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces as the flight heads north.
Mount Tai Peaks
On clear days, look inland over Shandong Province to spot the high peaks of this historically significant and sacred mountain.
Tianjin City Skyline
An excellent view of the Hai River winding through the city and the iconic skyscrapers of the central business district during approach.
