London鈥檚 Chinatown occupies a compact district around Gerrard Street in the West End and developed into the city鈥檚 principal center of Chinese restaurants, shops and cultural businesses during the second half of the 20th century. Decorative gates, bilingual signage, lanterns and densely packed storefronts create a distinctive streetscape only a short distance from Soho, Leicester Square and the theater district. The neighborhood reflects successive waves of Chinese migration to London and has become one of the most recognizable multicultural districts in the British capital.
