Around 11 AM went to top of the Taipei 101 (台北101) skyscraper . It is the tallest buildings in Asia and currently the world's tallest inhabited building at 509.2 m (1,671 ft).
The elevator that took us to the observatory at top is the fastest in the world, 1010 meters per minute, and you hardly felt it.
Also at the top is a huge Tuned Mass Damper "ball" made of metal which shifts during a typhoon or earthquake to counteract building sway.
It was a bit rainy and overcast so the view wasn't fair.
