Chinatown

Why go

Chinatown makes its case through the bilingual signs, gateways, bakeries, and produce markets. Notice that detail first at Chinatown. Afterward, compare it with the transition from historic row buildings to the park over the Central Artery. The pairing at Chinatown explains a compact downtown district shaped by Chinese and wider Asian immigration. Choose Chinatown when those features fit your interests. Give Chinatown a focused place in the Boston day.
