Taiwan Kaohsiung International Airport (KHH)
Orientation and Maps

(Kaohsiung, Taiwan)




The world-famous island of Taiwan is also known as Formosa and lies on the southern side of Japan and to the south-east of China. Taiwan is home to an interesting mixture of flat plains and mountainous areas, with the highest point being the Jade Mountain. Northern Taiwan tends to feature a rain season from January to March, and this climate has directly affected the local flora and fauna in this area.

Kaohsiung is the island's second-biggest city and has a population exceeding one and a half million inhabitants. Kaohsiung International Airport (KHH) is located on the southern side of the city and became a true international airport in 1972. In 1997, a large international terminal opened as part of the airport's expansion plans.
