Ⅰ.第一节
Chinatown, lying in Downtown LAnear the city's cultural center, is one of LA's most popular tourist destinations.
I had been heading to Chinatown for about 6 years to hang out until 2012, when I became a member of the neighborhood.After moving in, I started to explore every corner of this amazing place.
A MECCA FOR FOOD
In Chinatown, a mix of new and old restaurants meets everyone's needs.You can find dim sum at Ocean Seafood and tasty banh mi at Golden Lake Eatery.The cuisine in Chinatown goes beyond Asian food.People are still lining up for fried chicken at Howlin' Ray's.
Early birds should stop by Philippe The Original, a local restaurant that's beloved for French Dip sandwiches, but also serves a good classic American breakfast.Night owls will want to head to Full House Seafood on Hill Street, which is open late into the night.
CHINESE AMERICAN MUSEUM
Food is far from the only reason to visit Chinatown.People interested in history will want to start their trip at the Chinese American Museum(CAM), lying just outside of Chinatown at El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument.The museum is housed in the Garnier Building, the oldest surviving Chinese building in a major area of California.
CENTRAL PLAZA
A big statue of Bruce Lee has become a must-photograph site in Chinatown's Central Plaza.The late martial arts(武术) star once had a studio in Chinatown at 628 W.College St.
Nearby is Dragon Chasing Pearl, which was originally painted on the wall in 1941 by Tyrus Wong.The artist, who passed away in December 2016 at age 106, was famous for his work in films, particularly as the lead artist on Disney's Bambi.
FESTIVALS
Chinatown hosts many party-style events throughout the year, like the music and food truck Chinatown Summer Nights, the yearly Moon Festival and the biggest one, Lunar New Year! It's really a good place to experience LA's cultural diversity.
