#IndoorActivity #Taipei #TaipeiAttractions #Taipei101Observation Deck Located in Xinyi District, Taipei, the 101 Observation Deck has floors 88, 89, and 91 (the outdoor area may be canceled due to bad weather). The elevator will take you to the 89th floor first. The 360-degree panoramic view, standing on the 89th floor, looking at Taipei is amazing. It turns out that this is the city where we live in everyday. It is really shocking to stand at a high altitude and look down. I am still looking over there to see which direction my house is, and see if I can see the major buildings in Taipei. Things: Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall, Dome, A13 APPLE and Songshan Airport. When the sun is about to set in the east, you can see 101 reflected on Xiangshan Mountain, which is really a different feeling. Personally, I think it's very suitable to come in the afternoon, as you can see the sunset during the day and the scenery at night. At first, I thought it would be boring, but we didn't know that we stayed there for more than three hours and still didn't get enough of it. There are many devices to take pictures here, whether it is daytime or sunset, it is very easy to take pictures at night. Business hours: 11:00-19:00 (Monday to Friday), 10:00-19:00 (Saturday and Sunday) Address: 89F, No. 7, Section 5, Xinyi Road, Taipei City (Taipei 101 MRT/World Trade Center Station, 1 minute walk)

The Taipei 101 Observatory offers a breathtaking skyline view experience. Standing on the observation deck feels like being above the clouds, with the entire cityscape of Taipei unfolding before your eyes. The towering buildings, bustling traffic, and distant mountains and bays create a magnificent panorama. The rapid ascent of the elevator provides an unprecedented thrill and excitement. The wind damper on the observation deck is a perfect blend of technology and art, showcasing human ingenuity and creativity. This visit deeply impressed me with the splendor and beauty of Taipei.

As a half-Taipei citizen, I must go to the observation deck of 101 to see the cityscape of Taipei City. The high-speed elevator that goes directly to the observation deck makes my ears ring for a moment. As soon as the elevator door opens, the panoramic view of Taipei City is all at my feet. It feels magical! There are also some small shops on the top where you can visit and eat some snacks. There is no time limit on the observation deck, so you can stay as long as you want, so you can choose to go up at dusk. In addition to being able to see Taipei City during the day🌆, you can also see the beautiful night view of Taipei City at night🌃 💫NTD 600/person 📍Taipei 101 Address: 88-91F, No. 7, Section 5, Xinyi Road, Xinyi District, Taipei City Business hours: 10:00-21:00 #台北 #台北101

Taipei 101 Observatory would have been much prettier if the weather was a little better I almost regretted not going up here ㅠ_ㅠ I think the observatory is a must, not an option, when traveling abroad If you want to see the beautiful scenery of Taipei, you must visit the 101 Observatory! There are various photo zones and they sell souvenirs, so feel free to enjoy them 💗 In particular, the photos come out pretty no matter where you take them 📸 📍Souvenirs Before going up to the observatory, there is a chopstick vending machine near the entrance where you can get your chopsticks engraved. Be sure to buy some chopsticks here! You can get your initials engraved, and they are pretty. 📍Tickets Please note that there are tickets for only going up to the 89th floor and tickets for going up to the 89th and 101st floors. However, the Taipei 101 Observatory itself was really nice, but the elevator line was really long. Going up and going down both require a lot of patience ^^ 📍Admission fee 1 person - 17,397 won (changes depending on the exchange rate) It is cheaper to buy the admission fee in advance in Korea. #TaiwanIndependentTravel #Taipei #TaipeiTravel #Taipei101Tower #Taipei101

It's been 10 years since I've been to this wonderful building. It's a must-see course when traveling to Taipei, Taiwan. Don't forget to enjoy the delicious food and souvenir shops in Taipei.

I’ve been to taipei 101 and it’s beautiful you can see the whole taipei there. It’s a must visit when you come to Taiwan, your Taiwan trip is not complete if you cannot visit Taipei 101

After buying tickets for the Taipei 101 Observatory, you have to queue up at the other end to take the elevator. It was my first time there, and I thought the people waiting in line for the elevator were there to buy tickets. There were no clear signs, so I wasted more than 20 minutes queuing up at the other end to buy tickets. In addition, although tickets are divided into different viewing time periods, the tour group arrived more than 20 minutes later than me and were able to buy tickets in the time period ahead of me and jump the queue to enter. There is really room for improvement. (There is no time division abroad, the flow of traffic is clear, and the service is more friendly)

📍Taiwan's landmark Taipai 101 Building, a strikingly beautiful building in Taiwan Standing tall and a symbol of Taiwanese people 🔸 You can get there by bus and subway (blue line) 🔹 There are coffee shops and camping shops, postcards, souvenirs, collectibles, and gifts #TravelAbroad #TravelTaiwan #TaiwanTravel #SoloTravel

The Taipei 101 Observatory is a great place for a date. You can get a bird's eye view of the colorful Greater Taipei area at night, and there are also many delicious restaurants downstairs. There are also cute damping babies to take photos with you. The shopping street sells many souvenirs and dolls. You can also buy a 101 postcard and send it to your friends far away. Paper, pens and commemorative stamps are available on site.

#SummerIsSummer Taipei's symbol. !! Taipei 101, the 9th tallest building in the world with a height of 509.2m. I think I paid about 25,000 won to enter. I took the world's fastest elevator and went up to the 89th floor observation deck in 37 seconds and it felt really fun!! ㅋㅋ The telescope also supports Korean, and the outdoor observation deck was nice. It's amazing to look down at the city full of lights wherever you go ;) There's a shopping mall from the basement level 1 to the 5th floor, which was nice. I went down to the observation deck and had a meal. #Taiwan #Observatory #TaiwanTravel #Taipei #Taipei101 #TaipeiTravel #Taipei101Tower #TaiwanHotPlace #HotPlace #Summer

Which is the highest place in Taipei? A city always has its own city landmarks. When I visited the urban area of Taiwan, I saw a tall building, the Taipei 101. It is considered to be the tallest building in Taipei, just like the Oriental Pearl of Shanghai. You need to go up to the fifth floor to buy tickets. They cost NT$600 and HKD120. From the fifth floor, it takes only 37 seconds to reach the highest point, which is about 380 meters. It moves at an average rate of 10 meters per second all the way up to the 89th floor. Here, there is a 360-degree view from the Panoramic Viewing Platform, allowing you to see Taipei without anything in the way. There is a huge screen that features notes that talk about the different famous buildings in Taipei. You can visit Taipei as per your needs.

A while ago, my family and I went to Taipei 101 and visited its spectacular observation deck. Take the high-speed elevator to the top floor and overlook the entire city of Taipei from above. The busy streets and buildings unfold before your eyes, and the lights at night are like a dazzling galaxy. The observation deck of Taipei 101 not only offers stunning views, but also features a transparent glass floor area, allowing us to challenge our courage and feel the height under our feet. This trip made us fall in love with Taipei even more and gave the whole family unforgettable memories.

Before, I was taken up the mountain by the TV station in the 汐止 area, I forgot about it, but it's so beautiful📷😱🌃

To catch an early flight, I stayed at the Hyatt Regency Taoyuan International Airport. The hotel features a modern and minimalist design, conveniently located near the airport yet remarkably quiet, making it the perfect transition point for both departure and return. After organizing my luggage, I boarded the high-speed rail to Taipei, embarking on today's sky-high adventure. From the Taipei 101 Observatory, I gazed upon the entire city—a unique perspective where the bustling urban life intertwines with historical layers. The city unfolded like a puzzle, with verdant mountains in the distance and the Tamsui River winding like a silver ribbon. Standing at a height of 508 meters, the world seemed to pause, granting me an unprecedented sense of openness and tranquility. Returning to the Hyatt for the night, I watched planes take off and land outside the window, yet felt an extraordinary sense of peace and ease within.
