7 of North America’s Best Historic City Neighborhoods to Visit

There’s no better place in the U.S. to explore modern Chinese culture and Asian American history than in San Francisco’s storied Chinatown.

The first Chinese immigrants arrived in San Francisco in 1848, and the many who followed them created a vibrant neighborhood even in the face of discrimination and exclusion. Now one of the city’s top tourist attractions, San Francisco’s Chinatown is one of the largest Chinese enclaves outside of Asia and the oldest Chinese community in North America. For visitors, Chinatown is best explored on foot. Begin at the ornately tiled Dragon Gate, at the intersection of Bush Street and Grant Avenue, which is Chinatown’s main drag. Admire the architecture at the Sing Chong Building, constructed in 1907, then get your fortune read at the historic Tin How Temple. Finally, explore the fish markets, spice shops, and vegetable stands of Stockton Street — trust us, your taste buds will thank you.
