When it comes to going to Taip

When it comes to going to Taipei, many people think of Taipei 101 at the first time! This iconic landmark is not only a photo hotspot, its towering appearance coupled with the atmosphere when it is lit up at night makes me think when I look at 101: "It's really beautiful!" Whether in the morning or dusk, there are different visual enjoyments

Taipei 101 looking up super shocking photo essential
Walking to Xinyi District, you can see the Taipei 101 Building in the distance. Its presence is really bursting! Looking up from the bottom, you can feel the grandeur of the building, but also take a variety of looking up photos. It's very city-like📸. If you want to get an unmanned angle, you can go earlier (open from 10:00), the crowd is not so much in the morning, you don't have to dodge left and right to take pictures.

Inventory of Taipei 101 fun highlights
1. Look up and check in (must do)
According to my personal experience, the most beautiful photo spot must be the intersection of Xinyi Road and Song Chi Road, the whole building and the sky together into the mirror, plus the nearby city view, the texture instantly improved! It is recommended to shoot with a wide-angle lens for a more complete composition.

2. Taipei 101 Observation Deck
Most people will not miss going up to the 89th floor observation deck, almost 360 degrees overlooking Taipei City, simple interior design, high-rise views. Remember to check the weather again before going up. Clear sky is great for night scenes, low cloud days may not be so clear.

📍Address: 89th Floor, No. 7, Section 5, Xinyi Road, Taipei
⏰Business Hours: 10:00-21:00 year-round

3. Shopping at Taipei 101 Mall
The ground to the upper floors are Shopping paradise, with brands, boutiques, ice cream and dessert shops from all over the world.

4. Downstairs Food Street Explore
Taipei 101 Food Street has a super wide selection, whether you like Taiwanese snacks or international cuisine, there is sure to be one to suit your taste. I recommend "Ding Tai Fung" steamed buns and "Chun Shui Tong" bubble milk tea the most. They are worth eating once during the holidays!

Trip Tips & Practical Tips
The biggest feeling after going this time is: Taipei 101 looking up is really beautiful, photography does not need to talk more naturally out of the video! If you want to avoid the crowds, we recommend going before 3pm on weekdays, with really long queues on weekends and public holidays. It is more convenient to buy tickets online in advance for the observation deck.

- Seriously remember: the best weather is up to the 89th floor observation deck! Go at night and many lights, the whole Taipei night view is unbeatable
- If you don't want to walk through the mall crowded, you can consider taking hipster photos at the "44 South Village" next to it

Conclusion Tips
Access: One minute walk from the MRT Xinyi Line "Taipei 101/World Trade Center Station" exit
Food recommendations: Must-try Ding Tai Fung, Chun Shui Tang, or the Japanese dessert shops below
Tip: Taipei is humid, remember to bring an umbrella during the rainy season, check the weather app before taking pictures
