101 reasons Past with Present

On the last day of Taiwan, I went with my fellow medic friends to behold the current tallest building in the world. Taipei 101 is the symbol of Asian dynamicism, following the tradition of Malaysia's Petronas Twin Towers it overtook 4 years ago. Witnessing the towering building is a breathtaking experience. Humbled by its high presense the Taipei 101 embodies a modern architecture inspired by ancient design - an inverted pagoda of contemporary stature complete with ideals like the Chinese old coins and heavenly clouds. A definitive symbol of Taipei and Taiwan as a whole, the Taipei 101 is truly an exemplary success story of blending the past and present in the context of looking forward without forgetting one's great heritage.
