Chinatown LA

Living is Los Angeles can be fast paced and hectic most of the time.  When my friends and I do get some down time, you are likely to find us at some of our favorite restaurants or just hanging around a certain part of town.  One of our favorite areas in LA has got to be Chinatown.  There is something there for everyone, and the dining makes the trip there worth it alone.  If you have yet to experience LA’s Chinatown, you are missing out.  This is the first modern Chinatown in the United States, and it was home to the first mall too.

The shopping is exquisite.  Chinese themed products are not the only things that you can pick up in Chinatown.  Unique home stores and centers give you all sorts of ideas for souvenirs and things to take home with you.  Did I mention that the fortune cookie was invented here too?  That’s right, you can get authentic Chinese food and delicious and fresh fortune cookies.  If you love good food, shopping, attractions, and history put Chinatown on your list of places to check out when you are in the LA area.  Watch the video below to learn more about the wonders of Chinatown.
