Verticality

Moved on from HK yesterday to Taipei, home of the Taipei 101, the world's tallest building.  Still, HK's verticality will be hard to forget.  A small sample of pics:

The IFC, made famous to North Americans in The Dark Knight when Batman kidnaps the Chinese bad guy.


Outside the IFC:


On one of the many skybridges downtown:


In an older area called Soho:


Climbed up to the roof of a nearby building and got some different views:

And one last one from "Sneaker Street", in a shopping area that the government is threatening to tear down to, of course, put up more highrises.


More from Taipei in a bit.
