China Town
The San Francisco Bay Area is home to 30 percent of the Asian population in the United States, which explains why Chinatown in San Francisco is the largest outside of Asia. Attractions include Portsmouth Square and the Fortune Cookie Factory. Chinatown features events like the Chinese New Year Flowerfair and Parade, which kicks off the Chinese New Year with a grand festival that offers the best of Chinese art and culture.
