This is 'Taipei 101' the tallest building in the world. This is building is one of the few great pieces of Architecture. Located in Taiwan it has 101 stories, and is 508m high. It was a challenge to design and build a super-tall building like this due to the climate in that area of the world. It was also inspired by its cultural environment, and also from the Chinese culture, and a 'feng Shu master' did the whole interior designs. The damper located near to the top end of the tower, was the first of its kind to be made and used to solve the issues of the movement that occurs in sky scraper buildings. In Dubai they are currently under way on a building that will suffice Taipei 101's title as the tallest skyscraper in the world, whether it does sore that high we will have to wait and see.
