Chinatown (San Francisco)

San Francisco's Chinatown is the largest Chinatown New York after Chinatown in North America. It is home to some 100,000 people.

The entrance to this town (or better "city in the city") is clearly marked by a Chinese gateway. Incidentally, there are two Nestle lions on each side of the port you welcome in this (very large) Chinese district. The street scene is characterized by Chinese street lights, flags and buildings decorated with pagoda roofs. As far as the eye can see, one can see that Chinese characters are displayed on posters, billboards, flags and neon lights. It can happen to someone as if you are in one of the busiest cities inChina is.

Hundreds of Chinese restaurants (it would be in these restaurants that the tradition of the typical fortune cookies was invented and so not in China),[1]  antique shops and the like can be found in this district. Other notable sights include a Buddhist Temple and the "Bank of Canton", a building that is built entirely in Asian style.

The Chinatown of San Francisco is a tourist attraction.
