Taipei's Dadaocheng (大稻埕) area was one of the first commercial areas to flourish in the Taipei Basin, and for a long time it was the most important. After going through a period of decline during the last couple of decades, today it is flourishing once more, and is a fascinating area of traditional commerce laden with historic sites. As the Chinese New Year approaches this always busy place becomes even busier and more festive than usual, and is a great destination for travelers to get a taste of Taiwan New Year spirit and traditions. Leave time though, after exploring the area, to take a leisurely bike ride along the nearby bike-path system which follows the Tamsui River (淡水河). To round off the day, sample some traditional Taiwan xiao chi (snack food) in one of the city's best night markets.
To get to Yongle Market (永樂市場), hop on the Taipei Metro system, and hop off at MRT Shuanglian Station. Now take the Mackay Memorial Hospital (馬偕醫院) exit, transfer to the No. 518 bus, and get off at the mouth (west end) of Nanjing West Road (南京西路). Alternatively walk from the MRT station, heading west for about 15 minutes along Minsheng West Road (民生西路), then turn south on Dihua Street (迪化街). Either way, it takes about 15 minutes from the station. Beside the market is a collection of heritage shops and vendors of authentic old-time snack treats, and since it's probably breakfast-time and this spot is well-known in Taipei for its sailfish and rice-noodle soup, why not sample a steaming bowl? The delicious broad noodles are saturated with the rich broth. Try adding a delicious side serving of soy-braised pork. Other taste-of-the-good-old-days items sold at the stalls here are thick mackerel soup and short, thick rice-noodle soup.
Next, head up to the second and third floors of Yongle Market, to the Yongle Fabric Market (永樂布業商場). These two floors can in fact be said to be the original Yongle Market, and forms the core of Taipei's fabric-industry development. It's been up-and-running for more than a century, long before the present-day market building was built. During the 1895-1945 Japanese colonial era, Japanese businessmen had a taste for imported Japanese printed fabrics, and this venue quickly developed into north Taiwan's key wholesale center for imported materials, a position it still holds today. The shops on the second floor sell all sorts of printed fabrics, along with cloth for household furnishings such as curtains and drapes, while the third-floor vendors handle sewing, processing, and customized tailoring. The old New Year adage“out with the old, in with the new”(除舊布新) means business is beyond brisk here as the holidays approach, and whatever type of cloth or pattern you had in mind, Yongle Fabric Market pretty much guarantees satisfaction.
Adding to the festive aura at the market is a“prayer corridor”on the second floor, which will be in place until January 21st. Small prayer cards are being given away for free, on which you can write your New Year wishes.
When you leave Yongle Market you'll immediately be swept up in the crowds swarming into Dihua Street for Taipei Lunar New Year Festival (臺北年貨大街) events. Here you'll be regaled by enthusiastic hawkers shouting out what they have and why you must have it; stop for the free samples given out by many of the food vendors, and check out the wonderful array of New Year goods on sale. If your load of purchases gets too heavy, remember that the Dihua Street Post Office (迪化街郵局) and special booths set up offer New Year delivery services.
寒冬保暖法
How to Keep Warm During Winter
wikihow
Keeping Yourself Warm
Dress warmly. Warm clothing, especially when it's layered, not only prevents exposure, it also helps retain body heat.
Wear a warm hat and thick socks. We lose most of our body heat through our head, hand and feet.
Layer your clothing. Long underwear is thin, so it fits easily under most everyday clothing, including jeans and shirt. Bundle up with a fleece or a woolen sweater for extra warmth.
Wear comfortable pajamas, thick socks and heavy clothing while you are inside a private house.
Cuddle up under blankets.
Keep blankets on your couch so that you can wrap yourself up while reading or watching TV, and get extra blankets to sleep with.
Use a hot water bottle. Water retains heat for a long time, making hot water bottles an affordable and effective way to stay warm. You can use one while sitting at your desk or watching television, and a water bottle under the blankets will keep your bed warm through the night.
Consume warm foods and beverages. Delicious winter soups and hot cocoa are part of the fun of the season. Hot tea and coffee, and substantial foods like pizza, meat and toast will keep your body warm as well.

Take hot baths. They're a nice way to relax your muscles, especially after a stressful day, and can warm you up in no time. If you really want to relax, add some candles and soothing music. Be sure to dry off well afterwards.
Utilize your body heat.
Find a place to get cozy, wrap yourself in army-style 100% wool thick blankets and slowly but surely your trapped body heat will warm you right up!
Get up and get moving! An active body heats up quickly – run, dance, jump until you break a sweat. You can jump for a few minutes, ride an exercise cycle or dance to your favorite music. And if you don’t mind being a little cold at first, a mile’s walk around the neighborhood will get you sweating pretty quickly.
Use other people’s body heat: big holiday parties warm a house quickly, thanks to the body heat generated by the many guests. Snuggling also works, so cuddle up with your honey. Don’t have a honey? Maybe you’ll meet someone beneath the mistletoe at that holiday party!
