Chinatown

For more than 125 years, Chinatown has been a center for ethnic cuisine, shops and services. It's the largest concentration of shops and restaurants near the Pennsylvania Convention Center and easily accessible from the Philadelphia Marriott, Clarion Suites and new hotels.

Modern Chinatown spans from Arch to Vine Streets, and from 8th to 11th Streets. Asian restaurants are very common, numbering a few hundred, plus a few hundred more Asian-owned delis and convenience stores.

Every year, Philadelphia plays host to one of the largest Chinese New Year celebrations outside China.
