The “Tallest in Taiwan,” Taipei 101, and the “Tallest in Japan,” Tokyo Skytree, have officially formed an alliance. Following the signing of friendly cooperation agreements between Jade Mountain and Japan’s Mount Fuji, as well as between the Pingxi Cradle Skywalk and Japan’s Enoshima Electric Railway, Taipei 101 and Tokyo Skytree have now signed a joint friendly promotion plan. This further strengthens the friendly ties between Taiwan and Japan, as both sides join forces to promote the “2013 Taiwan-Japan Tourism Friendship Year.”
