    Discover the modern side of Chinatown by checking out the quarterly art walks along Chung King Road. The scene is surprisingly hip and young.

    Dim sum at Empress Pavilion on N. Hill Street, a visit to the Thien Hau Temple, and peering into the windows of exotic shops bursting with jade jewelry & dried ducks make for a fine Sunday morning. Read more

    Park in a parking lot during the week so you don't have to worry about running out of time at a meter. Sundays free parking at any meter!

    Chung King Rd has several great art galleries: Charlie James (969) shows political work by culture jammers, Jancar (961) consistently exhibits powerful work. 502 Chung King Court, Fifth Floor Gallery.

    Although it was smaller than I had been led to believe after watching Big Trouble in Little China, it does have a great feel to it. Buildings covered in neon tube lighting. A street of art galleries

    eat Moon pie, there was such a build up to these moon pies and when I ate one they tasted of dough! And then I get the old “well that is not a good one, if you had a good one you would like it”
