Taipei 101 Observatory

A must-visit location if you’ve never been. Entry fee via ticket purchase inside the mall . Make sure to go when it’s a clear day (or night!) — the view of Taipei , like other Asian cities , is amazing!

Taipei 101 is the most touristy thing to do in Taipei for NTD600 per person. Get the best view of the city at the Elephant Mountain instead, it was a steep hike but the most breathtaking skyscrapers .

(On a clear day ) the observatory provides you with quite some scenic views of Taipei . Don't forget to check whether the outdoor observatory (91st floor ) is open. The damper is fantastic too.

Tip:1)Ticket@TWD600 4gen adm,TWD1200 4fast pass.2)Entrance - level 5F from inside d mall .3)What's interesting - mass damper@88F,viewing decks@89F & 91F,souvenir shops.Check w/ desk 4viewing condition.

Amazing ! Don't forget your camera ;) and make sure you check all three floors 88, 89 and 91 (outdoors so it might be closed in case of bad weather, you can see if it's open when you buy ticket)

Worth the trip up. The fastest elevator , the view , and the wind damper are worth it. Go during a weekday morning to avoid the crowd and tourists .

What a view !D massive city of Taipei stretches out in every direction as far as d eyes can c.We got lucky - 30min earlier,it's raining w/ low visibility.4 TWD600,it's worth every penny.

Wait for a clear day to really get the best value. From here you can appreciate beautiful Taipei nestled amongst the forest mountains . Be prepared to be walked through lots of shopping "opportunities"

They turned their earthquake dampening sphere into a tourist attraction , and turned it into a character mascot called Damper Baby . If you can’t appreciate the genius here, don’t come.

For a free alternative: make a reservation at Starbucks on the 35th floor. You'll be closer to the ground and see more detail. No outside observation deck though.

Great view from the top. Try to visit on a nice day and visit the outdoor observatory on the 91st floor .

Amazing view from the top, recommended as one to visit in Taipei ☝️????????????

Awesome view of the Taipei skyline. Come on a clear day . And do send a postcard from up here, definitely special:)

Free wifi . Great views of Taipei when it's not foggy. 5th floor to the 89th floor in 37 seconds. Check out the damper babies .

I'm not a big fan of observatories , but if you're gonna do it, do it at sunset so you get to see the view in the day as well as at night ????????

The elevator goes from the 5th to the 89th floor in 37 seconds at a peak speed of 10 meters per second!

It's a must-visit in Taipei but it's not any better than other observation decks. Better to visit during the day because Taipei city lights are not impressive enough to see in the evening.

The world's fastest elevator..it only takes 37 seconds from 5th floor to 89th floor!

On the top 3 floors of Taipei 101, admission fee of $500. If you want to jump queue you may pay double for express ticket.

Exit is through the damper room—so take your time upstairs and don't worry about missing anything (but prepare for the Damper Babies video to make your heart explode).

What's a sensational views on the top of Taipei

You'll probably get dizzy from how quickly the elevator moves. But don't let that make you forget to send a postcard home when you're at the top!

Head on over to Elephant Mountain for arguably better views . Just take the Red Line from Taipei 101/World Trade Center station to Xiangshan station.

a very good way to see the whole of Taipei. :) Do not miss the 91st floor . :)

Very cool! It is now the fourth highest building in the world!

Buy a priority pass ticket online and skip the lines for both ticketing and the elevator

Great view at day time! Amazingly built.

Besides great view , the place also offers some delicious pineapple cake .

Magnificent view of Taipei from here. You can learn a bit of Taipei history here. The lifts are one of the fastest in the world.

Exiting through the 88th fl brings you through an enormous high end gift shop . You may want to skip it and take the elevator from the 89th fl

1000NT$ Fast Pass is quite useful, if you can afford it. You don't have to wait also when you get 'down'.

Wonderful place. Great views .

Be sure to go up to the deck on 91 and down to the 88th to see the ginormous stabilizing ball

Skip the ticket-purchase line and use the ticket vending machines inside!

Fantastic view with fastest elevator in the world. AWESOME

Ticketing on F5. 500 NT$/pax. Queueing up in a long line for 50 mins after getting the ticket to wait for the lift to F89.

Make sure you go there on a clear day .

Went here on a Thursday morning 9:30 am - no lines !

World tallest building (former)

There's student discount with ID

Tourist trap! But riding one of the world's fastest elevators is a good experience.

A must if you're in the area.

Fastest elevator in the world!

Can't see much from outside outlook

Beautiful view of Taipei

What is the point of lining up for 45 minutes and paying NT500 just to walk around a tourist trap? The worst part is you have to line up to leave too

Can't see much from here

Fastest lift inda world

I could have an amazing view of myself.
