Taipei 101 台北101 is the world
Tallest skyscraper since 2004, and
Malaysia Twin Tower became No.2. A 101 floors (509m) landmark tower that can withstand typhoons and earthquakes, which holds grand celebration every
New Year (1-01)! (referred wikipedia). On the observatory, I saw the
Taipei city from top, and then came down to take
photos of the tower and around the commercial district. After all, it is a luxury shopping mall, and more malls nearby too.. In Taiwan, I felt the people there are WARM and are showing good attitudes like hardworking, and responsible (though there is very rare exception, sometime i think). Something I felt was, they aware that... they themselves or what they do (quality), are representing their nation. (it was my early observation). Anyway, I can see
QUALITY! ..and
CULTURE.
Ximending 西門町 have been developed since Japanese ruling as entertainment area, the famous theaters street in
Taipei, in 1930. It continued to prosper even after that, but was declining in 1990. In early 2000, Ximending revived as pedestrian area and of great attraction to
young people! (referred wikipedia). Theaters, various stores, street performances, foods ...not forgetting
pretty girls and
handsomes. Ximending is extremely
lively at night
