Right by the very busy Metro entrance. Lots of loiterers, so don't set down your bags if you stop to take a photo. Better view from across the street.- Benjamin JancewiczOctober 17, 2011Probably one of the most beautiful entrances to any part of the city. Read more
Do not stand in the middle of the busy road to take a photo, tourists!
Dönivan Alvarez de MilordFebruary 8, 2012Theed only bad people down here are the assholes that comes down for pro-murder/anti-abortion rallies or the white trash overrunning the city now. They haves no class or tact!
Sometimes there are black wannabe Jews dressed in semi Samurai outfits preaching about how they are not African.
- Dönivan Alvarez de MilordFebruary 8, 2012Don't buy no cigarettes down here! Almost just got locked up!

"Love the Regal in Chinatown! Very easy to get to. Parking lot underground where you can park for free for 2-3 hours and get your ticket validated at the theaters. Easy to get to from the Metro!"
