Taiwan Day 2: Taipei 101 (台北101)

by Ulyssa Elaine - Thursday, April 26, 2018

Our third stop after Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall was Taipei 101. We took our lunch here and stayed for a few hours.

Unfortunately, we didn't go on at the observation deck because they were all afraid of heights. 😅

» Taipei 101 «

Taipei 101 was the tallest building in the world from 2004 to 2010. Now, the tallest building in the world is Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

» Din Tai Fung «

If you want to eat at the famous Din Tai Fung, you can go here in the afternoon around 3 pm because there's no queue at that time.

Unfortunately, when we came here around 12 pm, there's a long queue in the front of the restaurant. When we were about to exit and go back to MRT station, we saw that there's no queue. 😅
