The photo of the incredibly tall skyscraper is here in Taipei and is the tallest building ever constructed as of 2005. The photos were taken from more than a mile away near where I work. Although most buildings in its vicinity are at least ten stories, and most of them more, it dwarfs them so dramatically it appears to stand-alone. It is not yet fully completed but has taken many years to construct. It is called the Taipei 101 because it contains 101 floors and is symbolized in reference to ancient Chinese coins which have slits cut in them for one denomination and holes in others, thus forming a pattern that looks like 101. It is 1,676 feet tall which makes it the tallest building constructed by 200 feet the second tallest is currently in Malaysia called the Patronus Towers which are actually twin towers connected by a bridge. You can see that building in the movie "Entrapment."
