Description:
A living, breathing Chinatown in the heart of Vancouver. As an authentic neighborhood, this Chinatown is grittier than many Chinatowns in the West that have become more tourist-oriented. As a result, it's a great place to experience a glimpse into daily life. Check out the markets, especially the colorful night market, stroll the gardens, and peek into historic areas like Shanghai Alley. Be forewarned, the crime and drug-ridden neighborhood of Downtown Eastside is only a couple blocks away, so stay alert. If you stumble into this area, walk with purpose back into Chinatown. Better yet, set up a self-guided walking tour plan ahead of time that avoids this section and stick to it.
