This tower is fantastic. The view is incredible and it’s such a great experience. I love the Instagram spots built on the top floor

Been here many times. Love it when my son visited me and we went here together. My boss even treat us to lunch on 85F of Taipei 101??. One of the best and probably my most memorable experience in Taiwan ? is the yearly New Year fireworks display at Taipei 101 which is exhilarating to say the least ????? especially for someone who's away from home for straight 3years at a time.

My god the fireworks on new year was unbelievable This was my first time to see such a cool and amazing fireworks, I had never seen a such a beautiful fireworks, well it was raining that night even though I didn’t move because I really wanted to capture these views in my phone There are several Indian restaurants you may try Indian curry also

If you’re in Taipei for New Years, we absolutely recommend coming here for the night. The building itself is beautiful, and the mall inside is great as well. It’s located in a great area, and there is tons to do both inside and around the building.
