Hearing and seeing it on television already gives you awe. What more to see it in real form? Considered as one of the "7 Wonders of the World" by Newsweek Magazine and "7 Wonders of Engineering" by The Discovery Channel, having it stand right in front of your very eyes was just amazing!
It used to be the tallest building in the world, standing at 1,670 feet. I wanted to see it when it still claimed that throne, but didn't had the chance at that time. It is now ranked as 2nd in the world, just next to the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
The structure of Taipei 101 reflects an Asian pagoda, a bamboo stalk, and a stack of Chinese money boxes. The Asian pagoda represents a tower that links the earth and the sky. The bamboo stalk is a symbol of learning and growth. Then the Chinese money boxes is a symbol of abundance.
