Taipei 101

This is the world's tallest building. There is no way to capture how big it is unless you ride the world's fastest elevator to the top of it (1010 meters/minute ... so clever) and look out at how small the 50-story buildings are all around you. 1,667 feet tall, it is amazing in every way.
The tower was opened on New Year's Eve, 2004. This building could be cut off from the rest of the city and still run autonomously. The entire building is outfitted with fiber communication lines but has its own satellite communications system were the connection to ground communications cut off.
The first 6 floors of the building is a mall with movie theater and the best food court I have ever seen. Of course there is McDonalds, Subway and KFC. But there are several udon noodle bowl places, a really good Indian counter, a Mongolian grill, a sushi bar, and several other places that I couldn't name which region the food hailed from.
We saw a movie the last night that we were there. That itself is another experience. We walked up to a machine that is a lot like an atm. We picked which movie we wanted to see and at what time. Then we picked the seats we wanted to sit in and any concessions that we wanted (butter, soda, etc). Then we swiped our credit card and about twenty seconds later had little slips of paper that we turned in for popcorn and entrance to the theater.
I think the Taipei 101 was the best part of Taipei.
