Taiwan Strait
Expansive views of the busy maritime corridor with numerous cargo ships and tankers visible from high altitude.
Penghu Archipelago
The cluster of volcanic islands known as the Pescadores, clearly visible in the middle of the strait on clear days.
Kaohsiung Harbor
One of the world's largest container ports, showcasing massive shipping infrastructure and the Cijin District.
South China Sea Horizon
The vast blue horizon where the strait meets the South China Sea, particularly stunning during late afternoon flights.
