Vancouver - Chinese Cultural Centre

 
The Chinese Cultural Center (housed in a modern building at 50 E. Pender Street.) provides visitors with an opportunity to learn about the history and cultural life of Vancouver's Chinatown.

There were a number of stages in the development of the Chinese Cultural Center which was begun in the early 1980s. An entire city block in Chinatown was devoted to the centre.
