Taipei 101 Observatory

Formerly the world's tallest structure, a visit to Taipei 101 is quite simply a must-see attraction for anyone visiting the Taiwanese capital. On a clear day, you can take in some of the best views in Asia and see all the way down to the Taiwan straits, as well as clear views of the mountainous spine of this beautiful island. What's more, you can get to the top in one of the world's fastest elevators arriving at the top in a mere 37 seconds! An incredible feat of engineering, this megastructure is stabilized by an enormous 730-ton damper - an equally impressive sight on the 87th floor.
