Taipei 101
Catch a rare, close-up aerial view of the iconic skyscraper shortly after takeoff from the urban Songshan Airport.
Central Mountain Range
The rugged, high-altitude spine of Taiwan is visible inland, often peeking above the cloud layer.
Taichung Skyline
View the dense urban development and high-rises of Central Taiwan as you fly southwest along the coast.
Southern Penghu Islets
During the descent, spot smaller islands like Wang'an and Qimei scattered in the turquoise waters of the strait.
Book an early morning flight to avoid the haze and afternoon cloud buildup over the mountains. For the best view of Taipei 101, ensure you are seated a few rows behind the wing to prevent the engine from obstructing the city center during the initial bank.

Guanyin Mountain
A prominent landmark located at the mouth of the Tamsui River, visible as the plane exits the Taipei Basin.
Taiwan Strait
Enjoy vast views of the shimmering blue sea and the busy shipping lanes connecting East Asia.
Penghu Great Bridge
Look for the long, white bridge connecting Baisha and Xiyu islands during the final approach into Magong.
Magong Harbor
See the colorful fishing boats and the curved coastline of the main Penghu island just before touchdown.
The right side is the best choice for sunset flights, as you will see the sun dipping into the Taiwan Strait. On the approach to MZG, this side often provides a clearer view of the basalt cliffs and the famous Penghu Great Bridge if the plane approaches from the north.
