Here is Taipei 101, the tallest building in the world:

I took the elevator to the top. They are the fastest elevators in the world.
This is a view of Taipei City, looking down from the Taipei 101 observatory:

Another photo from Taipei 101. The colors of the houses were interesting.

Has anyone else been to Taipei 101? What did you think?

"tallest building"
Submitted by Ogedei on
The Burj Dubai recently unseated Taipei as the "tallest building" in the world.
I've only seen the Taipei 101 from the air on a flight to Kaohsiung. The arcitecture is quite nice; a modern building built in the style of a pagoda.

Here's a photo of Burj Dubai from March 2008 on Wikipedia...
