New Year's fireworks in Taipei. 台北での新年のカウントダウン。

We went to Taipei for 6　days.

We attended a New Year's Eve party　in a hotel from 10 P.M.

She performed a beautiful music for me.

The party ended about 11:40 P.M.

Then we went to the rooftop observation platform.

The fireworks started just the same time.

The fireworks started from the highest building in Taipei.

A typical Chinese style hotel.

Next day,we went to the building.

This building is named Taipei 101,

because it has 101 stories above the ground.

We had reserved a restaurant in 86th floor of the building.

We could see very beautiful night view from the restaurant.

Just same as sending  the heart-shaped neon sign of this building,

we send you our hearty message.
