"Fireworks cascade from multiple tiers of the 1,671‑foot, bamboo‑shaped tower, anchoring a celebration that’s become one of the world’s most dazzling as crowds gather for the official party nearby." - Elissa Garay
"One of the world's tallest skyscrapers with an observatory on the 89th floor that offers expansive views over the metropolis and surrounding green mountains, making it a prime starting point for orienting oneself in the city." - Anne Olivia Bauso Anne Olivia Bauso Anne Olivia Bauso is a travel writer and hotel expert based in New York City.

"A constant in the heart of downtown Cary’s rapidly growing dining scene, Taipei 101 serves Taiwanese, Sichuan, and Zhejiang fare in a casual atmosphere. The Chinese restaurant is a Cary mainstay, known for its generous portion sizes, scallion beef pancake roll, and soup dumplings." - Sarah Day Owen Wiskirchen
"Specializing in both Sichuan and Taiwanese cuisine, Taepei101 has been a mainstay of the Triangle’s Asian dining scene for years. Start the meal with the jellyfish cucumber carrot salad, alongside the golden and black mushroom soup (which also comes with bamboo shoots). There’s Chongqing chicken, maocai streaky beef, cumin lamb, and more on the Szechuan side. An abbreviated dim sum menu is available for those looking to recreate a Taiwanese dim sum experience. The cold pot fish fillet (a chef’s special) is definitely worth checking out — in China, there are entire restaurants dedicated to this one dish." - Matt Lardie
"I went up Taipei 101 for the views—the 89th-floor observation platform is absolutely breathtaking, and you can even go out onto the 91st floor; I recommend booking tickets in advance (admission 600 TWD, skip-the-line 1,200 TWD)." - Matthew Kepnes
