BTW, those are some really nice shots you got on the Brooklyn Bridge.

Last October I got it for $27 at Times Square.

it's nice of you to give us a tour through your pics. lovin' it.

DWest · August 14th, 2012, 02:07 AM

interesting shots specially the c-town..I think it's second to SF in North Am.

7kuna · August 14th, 2012, 02:22 AM

really colorful pictures. great

New York's Chinatown looks a lot bigger (and Chinese) than Chinatowns in European cities, at least those that I have been to. Amazing how many of the signs don't even have English translations to them.

***hkskyline*** · August 14th, 2012, 04:17 PM

Great collection. I had the impression that San Francisco's Chinatown was larger though, while the Canadian Chinatowns in Vancouver and Toronto are far less traditional and more modern.

Interesting shots. New York City looks like a great place for a short visit, but not such a good place to live - unless you are fabulously wealthy!

Why would you believe so?

I think San Frans' chinatown is the largest in North America and NYC's the second. Likewise, thanks.

I think Manhattan ( from lower to upper) is basically expensive for middle class earners but most parts of Harlem, Brooklyn, Queens and Bronx are affordable. Any comments from New Yorkers?
Anyways, thank you for your interest and I have still lots to upload.

Nah ... it's hard to survive on a working class salary in Manhattan, but there are plenty of affordable options across on the rivers, such as Jersey or Queens.

This is the traditional Chinatown, and it's huge. However, the Chinatown in Flushing Queens is WAY bigger.
