TAIPEI 101

I have finally learned something unique about Taipei, therefore I am ready to stop watching movies and go walk around Taipei. There is a building called the

Taipei 101
or maybe the
Taipei Financial Center

TALLEST BUILDINGS

TOP FIVE I FOUND IN Wikipedia.org

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World

1 Taipei 101,
2 Petronas Tower I, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
3. Petronas Tower II, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
4 Sears Tower, Chicago (IL), United States
5 Jin Mao Building, Shanghai, China


I noticed this building was always pointed out or discussed on maps, then I did a search on the internet, but I more or less ignored because, who cares just another tall building.

Then third day into Taipei, I ask someone,
"What is the big deal about this building?"

A person said,
"It is the worlds tallest."

So here I am looking at the official Taipei 101 building, reading maps, and everybody assumes that everyone studies Taiwan...

Therefore I am going to go see this building, now that someone made it clear.

I think this is the official page, not very good at anything, unless you want to rent an office.

This one is sort of fun.
