More Pictures From Taiwan

Here are some pictures from Taipei 101!!

Above: Taken on the 16/10. We hadn't had the time to get into the 101 building yet. It looks very impressive from afar though.

Above: We had finally arrived at the front door of Taipei 101!!! It's the tallest building in the whole wide world!!

Above: We got up to the 89th floor!! Peeking down, doesn't the view make you feel a bit vertigo? The square orange building is "National Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall (國父紀念館)"

Above: You can see the "Taipei Little Giant Stadium (台北小巨蛋)"

Above: You can see the pair of The Mac Arthur Bridges (麥帥一, 二橋). :D

Above: Taipei Rainway Factory (台北鐵道工廠). I think it looks like an evil pineapple. :D

Above: Can you spot the Marimar Ferris Wheel (美麗華摩天輪)? Mr. MonkeyMan and I had rode on it the first night we landed in Taiwan! It was most fun and romantic!

Above: Can you see the blue lego shaped buildings? :D

Above: A corner decoration outside the Taipei 101 building.

Above: The National Taiwan Democracy Memorial Hall (台灣民主紀念館 - 前名 '中正紀念堂')

Above: Taipei Station!! We had visited it many times during this trip because our hotel is right next to it. :)


Above: Can you see the "Grand Hotel (圓山飯店)?

Above: This is the world's biggest wind damper! :) Unfortunately, it wasn't very windy at the time of our visit. :D So, we didn't get to see it move around! :D




Above: The 4 Damper Babies! :D I like the red one the most! :D


Above: The 2 graphic illustrations of night and day of Taipei at the entrance of the observation deck entrance hall.


Above: It's the 5h anniversary of the building just 16 days ago. :)
