Chinatown town is a vibrant community that shows part of Chinese culture. There are variety of Chinese resturants and lots of Chinese elders roam around the streets. What does chinatown look like? What is the difference between chinese community and American community?

Chinatown is old and compact. It is a small community where people can connect to each other. It is part of Chinese culture that people like to form a group and play together. On the other hand, Americans are more independent. By capturing photos in different time period, I see elders playing Chinese chess from the morning to the night. There are not many people after 10:00pm, but lots of stores still open. Also, you can experience unique Chinese cuisine; for example, the hotpot. People order different kinds foods and share it in the pot. By capturing flags, it represents the friendship of two countries. It was nice to see the connections between the countries and good to experience different cultures.
