The Taipei 101 tower comprises 101 stories above ground and five underground, totally 508m. Wowww, it is really a very outstanding building!! I'm so happy to have the luck and chance to visit it as normally there is long queue for the ticket. :D

Just a sharing to all, group ticket will be cheaper compared to individual ticket but the number of people in group must more than 20 persons. Normal ticket price is NTD400 but in group is NTD350 per head. Me and my family, totally 8 people only but we were so lucky to join another group with 15 people to buy cheaper tickets. So we had totally saved NTD400 for the tickets. Hehe...you can do so too to save more money $$..... :)

After queueing for 20-30 minutes, finally we reached the observatory floor. The glass windows offered a 360-degree view of Taipei and the surrounding county. It was raining heavily on the day, hope my photos won't disappoint you all..... :P

Just a reminder that don't ever forget to ask for the explanation equipment at the counter when you've reached the observatory. It looks like a phone as shown in the photo below, you can just simply press the number assigned for each view for the explanation. Well, it is good for tourists like us to know more about the city......

| i was listening to the explanation, not on phone :P |
There are a lot of 101 souveniers selling over there, you can buy any memento you like, especially the 101 damper baby series.......they are so cute!!!!

Taipei 101 is designed to withstand the typhoon winds and earthquake tremors so there is a huge tuned mass damper inside which costs NTD 132 million.

The lower floors of Taipei 101 are those top branded shops, such as Louis Vuitton, Dior, Celine, etc. You can find all the branded shoes, clothes, watch, everything inside. This mall is really a shopping heaven for women. :)
Hope you enjoy..... :)
