Boston's Chinatown is one of the largest in the country, and offers a plethora of shops and eateries. You can walk through the Chinatown Gate to spot its protective lions, visit shops along the winding streets, and encounter Asian-American cultural history at the Pao Arts Center.
Beyond strolling, this is a prime Boston destination for savoring pan-Asian cuisine. Find everything from pho shops serving Vietnamese soup to dumpling houses and late-night hot pot restaurants. To learn about Chinatown's history, take a guided tour of Boston's old red light district, and add on stops at nearby colonial sights like Boston Common and the Granary Burying Ground.
