TPE → WNZ
Which side of the plane to sit from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (Taipei) to Wenzhou Longwan International Airport (Wenzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the northern tip of Taiwan upon departure and a more intricate perspective of the Ou River estuary and coastal islands during the approach into Wenzhou.
Yangmingshan National Park
Lush volcanic landscapes and green peaks of northern Taiwan immediately after takeoff from TPE.
Tamsui River Mouth
The scenic intersection where Taipei's major river meets the East China Sea.
East China Sea Islets
Isolated rocky islands scattered across the water during the short cruise phase.
Ou River Estuary
A complex network of bridges, wetlands, and industrial ports as the plane nears Wenzhou.
Longwan District
An aerial perspective of Wenzhou's urban development and dense commercial infrastructure.
The right side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. Pay close attention in the first 10 minutes for views of Taiwan's northern coast and the final 10 minutes for the dramatic geography of the Ou River delta.
Taiwan Strait
Vast views of one of the world's busiest maritime channels, often filled with cargo ships.
Fishing Fleets
Large clusters of fishing vessels visible as bright dots against the deep blue water.
Mainland Coastline
The jagged and mountainous coastline of Fujian and Zhejiang provinces as you descend.
Sit on this side during late afternoon flights to witness the sun setting over the Taiwan Strait. It provides a clearer view of the open sea and the horizon line between Taiwan and the mainland.
