Chinatown & Portsmouth Square

Chinatown · essentials · Free

I've walked every block of this neighborhood and the difference between Grant Avenue and Stockton Street is the difference between a souvenir shop and an actual place.

The oldest Chinatown in North America. Skip the tourist-facing Grant Avenue and go to Stockton Street.
