What are the customs and habits in Taiwan Province Province?

In recent years, influenced by European and American customs, customs and habits have changed greatly. In terms of clothing, in the past, the elderly liked to wear blue and black clothes and auspicious clouds shirts, while women liked to wear gold and silver jewelry. At present, men's clothes are mostly suits and Hong Kong shirts and trousers, while women's clothes are mostly dresses and sometimes cheongsam. In terms of diet, the staple food of Taiwan Province residents is mainly rice. Restaurants Restaurants operate in Sichuan, Guangdong, Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places.
