Taipei 101 is Taiwan’s tallest building and was the tallest building in the world from 2004 to 2009; its predecessor being the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and eventually being succeeded by the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, UAE. Illuminating the Taipei skyline, Taipei 101 has a mall, office blocks, and observatories and is within walking distance of Xiangshan Park, Taipei Civic Plaza and National Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall.
Walking within the surrounding area of Taipei 101, one is likely to see people exercising, practising dance moves and performing martial arts. And much like Tokyo, Paris and London, Taiwan can also be considered a city of lights as the city comes to life at night through the radiance of its buildings, storefronts and traffic.
