CHINATOWN, Chinatown

Hi, my name’s Jill, and I’m your personal guide. Along with MyWoWo, I’d like to welcome you to one of the Wonders of the World: Chinatown.

Chinatown, the largest Chinese neighborhood in the world after the one in San Francisco, really is a city within the city.

Once you step into Chinatown, which continues to expand well beyond the original area between Canal, Bowery, Worth and Baxter Streets, among the intricate tangle of electrical cables strung between the walls of ramshackle, humble dwellings, you’ll come face-to-face with thousands of signs in oriental characters vying for an extra square centimeter or two, all surrounded by a mix of exotic aromas created by a medley of spices, seafood, Peking duck, pork pies, exotic fruits and fermented vegetables…

Chinatown is all this… and much more!...
