Lead-in: know something about Chinatown
Chinatown is a district within a larger city which hosts a significant Chinese population. Many major cities around the world have Chinatown. These areas tend to have largely Chinese-focused stores, signs, and services. Historically, Chinatowns have arisen in places with a lot of new Chinese immigrants who lived together to help each other.
Introduction
Lead-in: know something about Chinatown
Many Chinatowns are popular tourist destinations, because they provide a culturally distinctive experience. While visiting an area like this is not at all same thing as going to China, it provides a taste of what life is like in Chinese communities and an opportunity to enjoy traditional Chinese cuisine, and to buy arts and crafts.
Tourism
There are Chinatowns on almost every continent, but some of the most famous ones are those in Manhattan, New York; San Francisco, California; London, England; and Manila, in the Philippines. The one in Manila is thought to be the oldest one in the world, having been founded in the 1500s, while those in Manhattan and San Francisco are among the oldest and largest in the US.
