Taipei 101

Yesterday we ticked off one of our last TODO items in Taipei: Taipei LOL. No, really, look at the sign. It’s an actual LOL-building.

Anyhow. It was briefly the tallest building in the world and is still impressive considering it’s in a pretty active earthquake zone. The view? Meh. What’s to look at? The swampy river in the distance and a load of Taipei “architecture” through the afternoon heat haze. Oh, and the mountains rising round the lip of the bowl containing the city. BFD.

Tick. Job done.
