#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 main photo shows the 89th-floor observatory with a W-shaped design, making it convenient for everyone to take photos of the outside scenery. Taipei 101 uses a special mirror principle, creating a kaleidoscope-like effect through the reflection of the ceiling and floor. From the north, you can see the Xinyi District and Songshan Airport, and from the west, you can see the Linkou Plateau and Guanyin Mountain. The 89th floor also has a restaurant and souvenir shop. The restaurant offers simple desserts and drinks, and the souvenir shop sells many classic Taiwanese childhood snacks at the same prices as outside. Very considerate! Additionally, the outdoor observatory on the 91st floor, at an altitude of 390 meters, offers an infinite view of the horizon. The elevator to the Taipei 101 observatory is the fastest high-speed elevator I've ever taken, reaching the 89th floor in less than a minute! The curved TV wall on the 5th floor allows you to comfortably enjoy the day and night views of Greater Taipei from the seats in front of it. Inside Taipei 101, there's a giant golden damper ball that reduces wind sway at high altitudes, making it feel like you're on solid ground even on the 91st floor. No need to worry even during an earthquake! ✨Highly recommended for friends traveling to Taiwan✨

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.

#Taipei Attractions Taipei 101 Observatory, take the super-fast elevator to the observation deck, overlooking the entire Taipei City at an altitude of 388 meters, with a 360-degree view.

Whether it is daytime or night view, there are different experiences and feelings. 👍👍👍👍👍 #TaipeiTravel #TaipeiGoodPlaces #TaipeiFreeTravel #TaipeiCheck-In

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.

Enjoy a picnic in the clouds at Taipei 101 Observatory, and join the fun with Director Meng Meng. This time, we're bringing along the Tonghua World Weight Bear.

#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

[Taipei 101] 📍Operating hours: 09:00~22:00 every day 📍Price: 600 NTD (If you make a reservation, it will cost 19,200 KRW in Korean currency) Taipei 101 is very famous for its night view, but when I went there in person, the windows were not as wide as in the picture unless you went up to the rooftop, so the pictures didn't turn out very pretty Still, the night view was really great because the tower was so tall! There's also a souvenir shop inside, so please refer to it😄👍🏻 #Observation deck#Night view#Night view spot#Taiwan#Taiwan travel#Travel destination recommendation

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. 

🌇 Soaring Twilight Views at Taipei 101 Observatory 🏙️✨ Towering above the city, Taipei 101 Observatory delivers breathtaking panoramic views—especially magical at sunset when the city lights begin to sparkle!

Hang around as twilight fades; watching Taipei transform after dark is a sight you won’t forget. (I had to dash for dinner and wished I could’ve stayed—so plan for extra time!) Must-do: Stroll the perimeter for sweeping cityscapes, spot landmarks like Elephant Mountain, and check out the tuned mass damper—an engineering marvel. Insta-worthy angle: The west-facing glass for dramatic sunset city shots; selfie-makers flock here for both silhouette and full city background. Practical visiting tips: Peak hours are around sunset, so book tickets online in advance to skip long queues. Observatory location: 89th Floor, No. 7, Section 5, Xinyi Road, Xinyi District.

Exploring Busan, Taipei, and Qujing 🚆✨ topped off my recent Asia circuit! The best parts?

If you’re hopping these cities, here are my must-see stops and real tips you’ll want to bookmark👇 Top Spots to Visit 1. 🇰🇷 Busan – Haedong Yonggung Temple (86 Yonggung-gil, Gijang-gun, 04:30-20:30): Dramatic Buddhist temple perched above crashing waves. Go early to beat weekend crowds! 2. Busan – National Fisheries Science Museum: Kid-friendly and surprisingly cool – aquariums, interactive exhibits, and local marine life. 3.

📍Travel Introduction Taipei 2-Night, 3-Day Trip with Mom❤️🫶 🚩Travel Route Day 1: Arrival - Hotel Luggage Storage - Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall - Yongkang Street - Taipei 101 Day 2: Yesu Falls Tour - Longshan Temple Day 3: National Taiwan Museum - Yongkang Street - Departure 🏖️Landmarks If you want to capture the entirety of Taipei 101, head to a nearby alley for a stunning shot of the Taiwanese landscape and Taipei 101! There's a famous alley about a 21-minute walk away, but it was a little scary at night, so we decided to take our photos there because the surrounding area was beautiful. On Day 3, it rained, so we went to the National Taiwan Museum. If you have time, I recommend the National Palace Museum! 🚇Transportation Taiwan has a great subway system, so we mostly took the subway. If it's hot, a taxi is fine, but walking or the subway is a great way to get around. 📷Photo Spots For photo spots, I recommend the teahouses in Jiufen, which I mentioned above, along with Taipei 101 and the Yespokji Tour. You can take photos in front of the teahouses, but when they're crowded and the lights are on, the staff will prevent people from blocking the front of the store. If you've used the teahouses, you can comfortably take photos from above or on the first floor. 🍜Recommended Restaurants The best restaurant is Din Tai Fung. It might be a bit pricey, but I think it's worth it. The Gopchang Noodle House, which you can find on Instagram and YouTube, is also delicious. Also, be sure to buy the famous coffee-flavored nougat crackers on Yongkang Street on your return trip. You can sample them, so choose the one that best suits your taste. The pineapple cake place also sells egg tarts, which are truly delicious. 🏠Recommended Accommodations Any accommodation would be fine, but if it's too close to the downtown area, it might be noisy. I recommend accommodations near Taipei Main Station, which makes it easy to leave your luggage and pick up your luggage on your return trip. 💡Caution Cockroaches in Taiwan are so big... I saw a cockroach for the first time in my life, and I wondered if a cockroach could be that big... After seeing it, I felt like I'd made eye contact with it, but Taiwan is such a great place that I think I'll want to come back again.
