| CHINATOWN | |||||||||||||||
| Chinatown has always been one of The City's most popular tourist attractions. It has been called "quaint," "picturesque," and other terms that help people forget that it's a slum with more neon lights than usual. There are really two Chinatowns. Grant Avenue is designed to appeal to tourists, with its giftshops and restaurants. Less glamorous (but more fun) is the rest of Chinatown, where the actual Chinese population lives and shops.
