I don't know about other places, but
You have to go here!

Taipei 101 Observatory is a must-visit attraction for anyone visiting Taipei. Taipei 101 Tower, the tallest building in Taipei, boasts a whopping height of 382 meters. That's why it is always considered a must-visit travel destination in Taiwan. You can enjoy a 360-degree view of downtown Taipei from the observation deck located on the 89th floor, and you can also enter the outdoor observation deck on the 91st floor.

I'll tell you how to get there

Taipei 101 Building is easily accessible by Taiwan's MRT subway. Take the subway and get off at Taipei 101/World Trade Center Station and take Exit 4, which connects you to the underground restaurant area of Taipei 101 Building. At this time, if you take the stairs or escalator from exit 4 and come out, you will see the entrance to Taipei 101 building near the LOVE sculpture.

Elevator listed in the Guinness Book of World Records

How fast can an elevator be listed in the Guinness Book of World Records? Taipei 101 Tower's elevator is said to go up from the 5th floor to the 89th floor observation deck in 37 seconds. That's why it's listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's fastest elevator. Part of the fun is seeing how fast it actually is.

The secret of Taipei 101 Tower is the damper

If you go up to Taipei 101 building, you can see the golden damper. This is what holds the center of Taipei 101 Tower from collapsing. The damper, located between the 88th and 92nd floors, is a weight of 600 tons with a diameter of 6m that serves to maintain the center of the building so that it does not collapse during earthquakes or typhoons.

You can see it in person, so I recommend that you don't miss it.

Introducing the best photo zone

The best photo zones at the Taipei 101 Building observation deck are the four corner zones. I guess the corner zone shows the prettiest photos. Like the photo above, there are photo zones where you can take pictures, but even in places where there aren't, the corners are always popular photo zones.

Enjoy a fantastic night view

When is the best time to visit? According to WAUG's data, 6 p.m. is the time when most people visit. Many people visit the Taipei 101 Tower Observatory at this time because they can see the sunset and the night view at the same time. The view of downtown Taipei from here is truly fantastic. I definitely recommend seeing the sunset and the night view at the same time.

I recommend nearby restaurants

Taipei 101 Tower's basement level to the 5th floor above ground is comprised of restaurants and shopping malls. So, I recommend eating before going to the 5th floor, which is the entrance to the observatory. The most popular restaurant among these is Din Tai Fung, located on the first basement level. You can taste a variety of dishes, including dim sum, beef noodles, and fried rice, so I recommend stopping by if you go to the observatory for lunch or dinner.
