Location: Grant Ave. and Bush St., San Francisco

Chinatown in San Francisco is home to the largest concentration of Chinese citizens outside of Asia. This neighborhood is one of the most visited in the city and tourists travel here for the fine food, unique shops, and other important cultural experiences like concerts or theatrical productions.

Chinatown has two main streets, Grant and Stockton, and is about 8 blocks long. At Bush and Grant, you’ll find the great Dragon Gate, fun to walk through and even better for taking pictures to help you remember your visit. Down Grant Street, you’ll find the most touristy section of the neighborhood, with lots of restaurants and stores peddling colorful Chinese merchandise including apparel, jewelry, and martial arts equipment.

Remember to check out the little alleyways off the main streets to find unique Chinese herbal medicine shops, antique stores, and other fascinating retail establishments. Visitors of all ages will enjoy making a stop at the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Company to watch how cookies are made and how the little messages get inside! Also be sure to check out Lulu Lillies Yoga Shop if you're a yoga fan.
