Yongle Fabric market is located on Dihua Street. Dihua Street is "most notable for its Japanese colonial era and Qing dynasty architecture, It is also famous for the Dihua (Tihua) Street Market during the Lunar New Year holidays. The market sells dried fruits, nuts, dried meats, dried seafood, snacks, and health drinks." There you go! Wiki explain it all for me. Anyway, most of the fabric located on the second floor, with tailors located on the third, there are also independent fabric stores scatter through out. Haberdashers and notions all located on one street near the main fabric market building. It is pretty much one stop shopping for all sewers and hobbyists, though the down side to that is when it rains.

My friend and I always thought this temple in the above is kinda odd every time we pass by, because it's got no windows. Then We found out that because this facing away front the road, most likely something to do with Feng Shui.

2nd Floor of the market:
It is pretty much a huge maze of rolls of different fabric stalls, quite daunting first few time you are there. I think I have it mostly map out in my head now, though I still get lost in there sometimes.
