They also have postal services here. So I bought myself a post card to be posted back to my home at Malaysia. It costs 45NTD for the post card including postage if I remember correctly.

After touring around the 88th floor we then moved on to the 89th floor which is an outdoor observatory deck. For once I could finally see the surrounding of the city without a big fat glass panel right in front of my face.
