The National Palace Museum was interesting because it showed art that is exclusive to Chinese Culture. One of the wierdest things in the museum that is also probably the most famoust is the Jade Cabbage which is bok choy made out of solid Jade.
From the museum, we headed over to Taipei 101 which is the tallest skyskraper in Taiwan. It's over 101 stories tall. Inside is a full mall that has every designer you can think of (just about). I was able to land some Dolce & Gabanna flats for 60% off. Best day so far. <3 Some of up bought tickets and rode the elevator to the top. The elevator took us up to the 88th floor where there was a 360 inside observatory. The elevator went so fast that my ears popped. It only took about 40 seconds to go up more than 80 stories. From the inside observatory, we took the stairs up to the 91st floor where there is an outside observatory. This was a lot more fun. There was a great breeze so we were able to stay up there a while and take tons of pics. After all the shopping and site seeing, we finally ended up at Freedom Square.
This is a great area with tons of asian style architecture and landscaping. There were tons of locals and tourists walking around. This is the square a lot of people go to to watch the countdown and fireworks at Taipei 101 just like Americans do at Times Square.
