  5. Taipei 101 in Taiwan is currently the worlds tallest occupied building. In terms of height, it is already surpassed by Burj Dubai, currently under construction in United Arab Emirates.

  6. When I was in sophomore year, My teacher once asked,

    " What is tallest building in the world?"

    Some of my classmate answered:

    " The World Trade Center!"

    " The Petronas Towers in Malaysia!"

    but my teacher shook her head

    "All of your answers are wrong"

    "If the buildings we've mentioned is not, then what is it?" I replied.

    " The answer is Taipei 101 of course, located in Taiwan"

    At first, we couldn't believed that it was, for Taiwan is just the country in the north of the Philippines!

  7. Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan. I was researching something when I came across this.

  8. The tallest man-made structure is the Burj Dubai, a skyscaper still under construction in Dubai, that has reached 636 m (2,087 ft) in height as of May 12, 2008.

    Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan is currently the world's tallest inhabited building in three of the four main categories that are commonly measured: at 509.2 m (1,671 ft) as measured to its architectural height (spire) as well as roof height 449.2 m (1,474 ft) and highest occupied floor 439.2 m (1,441 ft).

  9. The world's tallest building is called Taipei 101 and is located at Taipei City, Taiwan. Any further information that is needed, check my favorite website below.

  10. The tallest building at the moment is the Taipei 101 in Taiwan, but the Burj Dubai which is under construction at the moment will be about 800 meters tall, making it not only the tallest building in the world but the tallest free standing structure. It is due to be completed in early 2009 if i remember correctly.
