"I don't need to exchange money," said Tiffany, taking out her purse. "I have loads of leftover Renminbi from my trip to China last year. I've only exchanged several hundred pounds, but still, I didn't spend it all as there just wasn't anything to buy there!"
"Do your research, Tiffany!" answered Jeffrey. "Taiwan has a different currency to mainland China, it's called the New Taiwan Dollar. You'll probably need more than several hundred pounds this time, as there're so many goodies to buy in Taiwan that you'll probably spend it all!"
"Dang, really?" replied Tiffany. "£5000 it is then!"
The group of friends pulled their luggage towards the currency exchange bureau counter, only to perceive a poster showing the Eiffel Tower and Taipei 101 side by side.
"Wow! It's the Taipei 101!" exclaimed Eliza, who is a huge fan of the famous skyscraper, pointing to the poster. "Can't believe they have adverts here as well, and I didn't know that it looks much taller compared to the Eiffel Tower!"
"What's the Taipei 101, Jeffie?" enquired Tiffany.
"Gosh, Tiffany, you didn't know? It's, like, the most famous skyscraper in the world!" explained Jeffrey. "It was the tallest skyscraper in the world from 2004 to 2010 until it was surpassed by Burj Khalifa, but remained the tallest in East Asia for more than 10 years, and it's still in the top-10 tallest, 15 years after its completion. It's an architectural masterpiece, not to mention a must-visit tourist destination in Taiwan. It is over 1.5 times the height of the Eiffel Tower."
"Yeah! Can't wait to visit its 101st-floor observatory that was just opened to the general public in June last year!" said Claire.
