This is the tallest building in Taiwan and it is a must for any tourist visiting Taipeh.
It is a beautiful building and crowds of people are everywhere. We saw members of an organization staging a street protest.
Everyone was busy taking photographs of Taipeh 101, to take home with them a momento of this tall structure.
We went into the basement where there was a famous restaurant called Din Dai Fung which is famous for its siew lung pow ( small dumplings with different soup-based filling). The queues were very long and one had to wait for up to one and a half hours if one did not have a prior booking. The chefs were kept busy producing the dumplings.
True to its reputation, the dumplings we tasted were very delicious, very different from those we had in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
The upper floors of the building housed brand name boutiques and the décor was very impressive.
Ii was definitely a different type of shopping experience from the street markets of Taipeh. Only the well-heeled can afford to shop here.
