San Francisco Chinatown
SAN FRANCISCO, CA :: After my hike up Yosemite’s Half Dome, I had an extra day to explore downtown San Francisco. I started with a dim sum lunch at Yank Sing. As I enjoyed a blossom tea, busy servers steered carts past me. I was free to select among the many little plates containing bite-sized mysteries, all of which ended up being quite good. With a full belly, I walked the short distance to the Chinatown gate.
San Francisco Chinatown is the largest Chinatown district outside of Asia, so I definitely didn’t see it all. I peeked into a few of the fascinating shops and ventured a ways up and down some of the side-streets. It’s a great place to enjoy a couple hours, sampling the sights and sounds of different cultures.
