Taipei 101 was once the tallest building in the world. From the Observatory you can see most of northern Taiwan, it's quite spectacular -- it's still the tallest building in Taiwan. Take your time to look around. By the way, the elevator will whisk you from the ground level to the top in a matteer of minutes.

I found this library because it’s illuminated so beautiful. This library has 5th floor and theater on the top floor. Well designed for visitors、easy to find categories. many desks, clean and quiet. And open until 22 o’clock midnight. Kaohsiung residents are happy to have such excellent library.

This was not an easy feat for me. This took me a long long time to get here. My hotel was smack-dab in the middle of downtown Taipei. I am also not a hiker, and in the extreme heat and humidity it took a toll. From my hotel it took me two train rides, a 30 minute gondola ride, a 40 minute walk to get to the hiking trail and once at the hiking trail it took me another 25-30 minutes all the way up the steep steps to make it to the top. Needless to say I was drenched in my own sweat, but man oh man what a sight. Make sure to take about 3-4 bottles of water and some food to eat, also an umbrella for the sun and lots of bug spray, you WILL get eaten alive. I finally made it to the Yinhe Waterfall cave. It was suffice to say..amazingly beautiful. I used google maps all the way here for which trains to take and to stay on trail to the cave. I don't recommend tourists coming here when it is severely hot out as I felt like I was going to pass out but its definitely doable - just be careful and pack accordingly. A MUST SEE! I won't ever forget my time here.

Our tour guide booked Alishan Gor which is the hotel nearest to zhaoping station. That is the train we need to board at 6 am to go to the Zhushan station for the sunrise. We went to the station at 530 am and found out it has not even opened yet. Haha we are the first who bought the ticket but when the train came from Alishan station it was packed. When we reached the observatory the sky was already bright but the sun was st the other side of the mountain waiting to see us. We walked quite a bit to the ogasawara watch tower (aliyuan)upslope and down slope. But I can assure you it is truly worthwhile. When the sun finally rise it was just unexpectedly awesome. It is the purpose we came to Taiwan this time to see the sunrise and we can amazed by its view. Marvellous view but you can't see the sun directly for long or one may get blind I believe. It is painful. So everyone took selfies to capture the spectacular view. We stayed till around 7 something to catch the last train back to Zhaoping station. There are only 2 services offered in the early morning to return before the usual routine of train services starting at 9 am. It is really an eye opener for mr as I always see sunrise at sea. This is the first time I see from a mountain. Must go.
