Taipei 101 Mall

A multi-level shopping mall adjoining the tower houses hundreds of fashionable stores, restaurants and clubs.

the entrance

entrance to the Observatory
(due to limited time, we didn't get to the Observatory)

Taipei 101 features an Indoor Observatory (89th floor) and an Outdoor Observatory (91st floor). Both offer 360-degree views.


But I did observe the food at the Flavor Field..



yummy..


Next, I observed the Fresh Handmade Cosmetics


La Mer is a brand of cosmetics owned by Estée Lauder and by a German cosmetic company.


The curled ruyi symbol is a recurring motif inside the mall. Many features of the interior also observe feng shui traditions.



The mall's interior is modern in design eventhough it makes use of traditional elements.

    Nice mall and great architecture for the Taipei 101. But some said that this giant building is one of the factors for the frequent earth quake in Taiwan. Not sure how true is it.

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down.
