Chinatown

(0 votes)

With an estimated population of 100,000 residents, Chinatown is the largest ethnic population outside of Asia. New York's Chinatown is a frenetic blend of tiny, winding, cobblestone back streets, most of which are dotted with family-owned restaurants, ethnic shops and street vendors.

Chinatown is one of six Chinatown neighborhoods in New York City and is more Shanghai bazaar than city streetscape along Pell and Mott streets. It is ever-expanding as a vibrant and colorful neighborhood that is full of high energy. There are many outdoor cafes in the area but in Chinatown dining is still done indoors.

A great way to fully experience the cultural aspects of Chinatown is to go shopping on the weekend on Canal Street, take a food tour at the many restaurants serving authentic Chinese cuisine. "Wo Hop" has been a working man's place for good inexpensive food for many years. Beware, the lines on the weekends go up the stairs and the wait can be long, but worth it.

If you are not faint of heart, head over to Division Street and East Broadway, both slicing under the Manhattan Bridge for a part of Chinatown where tourists seldom tread. Some of the food you see for sale will be a complete mystery.

  • Aquariums

    Oceans cover 71% of the Earth’s surface, and we’ve only explored about 5% of it. That leaves so much of the Earth that we know nothing about. Not everyone can dive right into the water to look at the ocean life, so why not do the next best thing? Aquariums give us a window into a whole other world. Most locations around the world have aquariums; some larger than others.

  • Snowmobiling

    Snowmobiling began to take off in the 1950's as lightweight design emerged. At first, snowmobiling was a topic of dispute, because snowmobilers like to take advantage of the flexibility of their machines to travel off-road, thereby disrupting otherwise pristine environments. Others objected to snowmobilers because their machines were noisy and polluted the environment.
