Since the summer of 1998, ChinatownNYC.com has never strayed from providing our visitors with the most simple yet comprehensive information about our community. The challenge for us was to how to share so much of what we have learned through our years. We have always understood that there are limitations to gathering and applying information for travel. So much can be learned through the internet, books, and word of mouth. Chances are that you would rather trust someone who identifies with the culture. But if there is no such reference, how do you differenciate between the good and the bad, or have no information at all? For this reason, ChinatownNYC.com is providing a voice, a person, to share our experiences and ideas to fulfill your needs. By providing our recommendations we hope to bring you closer to the authenticity that Chinatown and it’s community has to offer.
