122630406898202.Pdf EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION Taipei, a City That Never Sleeps metropolis of international caliber, each year Taipei joins the great global celebration A of Christmas and New Year’s Eve. The joyful sounds and smells and sights of boisterous celebration fill the entire metropolis. As “Merry Christmas!” and “Happy New Year!” greetings resound, the distance between Taipei and the world noticeably shrinks. City nights sparkle with light, splendor, action, and vitality, greeting visitors from overseas with a warm Taiwan- style embrace, and inviting them to personally experience the wonderful, action-filled “City That Never Sleeps” (臺北夜未眠)! In this issue, we bring you to the city’s frontlines for fashion. We bring you “Taipei’s Manhattan” (臺北的曼哈頓), the Xinyi Commercial District, a grand bazaar home to upscale department stores, the massive exhibition halls of the Taipei World Trade Center, chic restaurants, sleek theaters, steamy nightspots, and many other examples of the international- caliber voguish vanguard. Here is a veritable pleasure vault of shopping and leisure- entertainment stimulation. Taipei 101 and the eslite Xinyi flagship bookstore, the largest bookstore in this country, are just two of the numerous iconic architectural sirens that draw you in with their magnetic allure. Within Taipei 101, you’ll find OTOP, a hall selling and displaying the finest of Taiwan’s regional handicraft and food items; here you will find the quintessential “flavors” of this land, a perfect place to pick up Taiwan mementoes and gift items. In this issue, we also prime you with details on the myriad Parade Carnival (遊行嘉年華) and New Year’s activities in December, both organized by the Taipei City Government. Along with the countless top-flight restaurants in the East District, and a smorgasbord of special meal deals on offer to add even more delicious flavor to the Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. In our happy Living in Taipei section, we take you on a roaming excursion to Sishou Mt. (Four Animals Mt.), also in the Xinyi (and Nangang) District. We then take you to and through the fabulously colorful Taipei Flower Show, the in-no-way-stinky All about Feces Show at Taipei Zoo, and the electrifying annual Taipei IT Month exhibition. In our Arts section, we introduce to you the important platform for Taiwan and international artistic interchange, the 2008 Taipei Biennial, and open the doors to a very happy place, Taipei Artist Village, a space given over to free-reign domestic and international artistic creativity. There’s much more of course, but you’ll just have to trust in serendipity and ramble through the pages to follow on your own. Please enjoy. So, dearest friends, please come one and come all! During this season of joy, we welcome you to bring in the New Year, 2009, together with us, all Sleepless in Taipei. We guarantee you that during this party of the city, you will find surprises in every corner at this fabulous city!
