Attractions
Taipei 101 is currently the tallest building in the world with 101 above-ground stories. (But be sure to say "I saw it when," as it will only carry this distinction until the completion of the Burj Dubai in 2008.) It was built to withstand earthquakes above a seven on the Richter scale and is considered by many to be the world's most technologically advanced skyscraper. Make sure you visit the world's highest outdoor observatory, which you can access by taking one of two elevators that will get you from the main floor to the 89th floor in under 39 seconds.
Shopping
The cash-only night markets offer clothing, gifts, souvenirs and a wide selection of handicrafts at great prices. But if you're looking for electronic gadgets, computers and software, the place to visit is the Kuanghua Market.
Currency
Taiwan's unit of currency is the New Taiwan Dollar (NTD).
