Description

OldTown/Chinatown is a mix: commercial office space, popular bars, nightclubs andrestaurants. Most folks know Oldtown and Chinatown for two reasons: SaturdayMarket and the Classical Chinese Garden. View our video of the beautiful garden.

Weekends are crazy busy with hundreds(if not more) of people milling about enjoying local artist's crafts and amazinglocal food, most with an ethnic flair. Don't forget that Saturday Market is openon Sunday's too!

TheClassical Chinese Garden is an authenticSuzhou-style garden and is simply incredible. Photographers-- bring yourcamera's! I am relaxed simply by walking through and enjoying the sights andsmells (hmmm...jasmine in the summer!). Do yourself a favor and visit!

Young,old, hip, trendy, hippie...you name it-- all walks come out and enjoy the fundown in Old Town/Chinatown.
