Manchester - Chinatown

Chinatown, the colorful home of one of the largest Chinese communities in Great Britain, is only a stone's throw from the City Art Gallery. The richly decorated Chinese arched gateway which leads into this little district is especially striking. Many shops and restaurants offering a wide range of culinary delicacies (especially from Hong Kong and Peking) have become established in this quarter, while Chinese handicrafts can be found at the Chinese Arts Centre in Charlotte Street.
