Sights and Highlights
Nine out of ten people coming to Taipei would have Taipei 101 on their things-to-do and places-to-go. Who can blame them? Taipei 101 is a landmark and pride of Taiwan and has one of the most watched firework displays in the world. There are several things to do here. There's a mall where people can buy their signature brands, and there's the observatory.
The Observatory usually sees itself packed with crowds. Despite the long queues of people waiting to go in, there is a very controlled foot traffic system where the staff lets only a percentage of people in while the others wait for their turn.
The 89F Observation Floors is 382 meters above ground. It comes with impressive high-tech binoculars that help give you a good look of the city. What's exciting is the experience of riding the lift up. You can do a countdown from 37 and you get there
