This Ugly Beautiful City Chinatown Tour

​On this guided tour, you’ll explore the three Chinatowns of Los Angeles’s past and present, all orbiting Union Station. As we walk, you’ll see how the neighborhood’s history is layered into the streets around you. We’ll visit the last standing building from the original site of Los Angeles’s first Chinatown, a rare window into the late 1800s. Then we’ll step into the present, stopping at small businesses that keep the neighborhood alive.

​You'll learn more about Los Angeles history and leave with stories to tell. This is a neighborhood to keep coming back to, and after this tour you’ll know exactly where to start.

​All details, including the itinerary, will be emailed to confirmed guests.
