When I was testing out some addons, I managed to stumble upon a taiga village and a ruined portal. Please notice that it is very far away from spawn and that you would need to walk a few hundred blocks to get to it. Some details I noticed about the portal was that it had fallen other, and lava was bubbling in the center. The village supplies a number of beds so you wont have to go hunting for sheep.
