The Chinatown of San Francisco is widely regarded as the biggest cohesive settlement of Chinese people’s outside of China. It is also known as one of the earliest “Chinatowns” developed in the western world. San Francisco’s Chinatown has a rich and turbulent history both heavily connected to and yet apart from that of San Francisco. From the unique architecture and sense of local pride to the horrors of the San Francisco Earthquake and subsequent firestorm, the habitants of Chinatown have repeatedly exemplified what it mean to struggle, survive and flourish in the melting pot that is America. Today the unique sights, sounds and smells of this iconic community have given birth to a booming tourism industry. To give you a bit of perspective, the Chinatown entrance gate receives more annual sightseers than the Golden Gate Bridge! Chinatown itself has a history of over 150 years but its appearance today owes much to the efforts to rebuild the city after the 1906 earthquake and firestorm. During these catastrophic events, almost all of Chinatown was destroyed.
Afterwards, Chinatown merchants and community leaders came together and decided to rebuild Chinatown in a more traditional Chinese image. This was done, both to foster cultural pride in the hearts and minds of Chinese Americans and to act as a draw for tourists who would provide the community with much needed revenue. These plans were a success on both counts and San Francisco’s Chinatown became the gold standard for Chinatowns all across America. The beauty, sights, sounds, tastes and smells you’ll experience all offer insight into one of America’s most colorful cultures and most fascinating communities.
