Archways are a common sight in many Chinatowns.

It is a visible marker that signals a Chinatown from a distance. In recent years, many Chinatowns have started constructing archways.

In our 2014 Chinatown archway poll, Washington Chinatown's archway was voted the most beautiful in Americas.

Instant Chinatown! Just add tenants. A Chinatown in the capital of Argentina and complete with an archway. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most controversial Chinatowns. Founded in 1877 and built by successive waves of migrants, Montreal Chinatown is a popular tourist attraction and a center of Chinese organisations. The largest Chinatown in USA and more than a century old. A Chinatown that expanded greatly in the 1850s and whose early migrants faced great social challenges.
