My main destination is visit the observatory because I want to seeing the city of Taipei from the above. Before entering the observatory, you should buy ticket in 5 floor. This floor is like a mall where visitors can shopping and eating. There are ticketing machine where you can buy the observatory's ticket buy put some money into the machine and you'll get the ticket. Very simple and easy. The ticket price for one person is about TWD 600.

Other thing that impresed me is the lift. FYI guys, this lift is the fastest lift in the world which could lifted 20 person to 89 floors only less than 1 minutes. Moreover, I don't feel anything inside the lift then suddenly I arrive at 89 floors.

From this floor you can see all of Taipei City. Don't worry, this floor is very safe especially if you bring your children bacause this floor covered by very thick glass but still clear to see the outside. You can take picture as long as you want here.
