China Town, Asian neighborhood in City of Westminster, United Kingdom.
Over 80 restaurants line the streets around Gerrard Street, offering Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Korean dining establishments in central London.
The first Chinese community settled in Limehouse during the early 1900s, but relocated to the current location near Soho following World War II damage.
Chinese New Year celebrations transform the streets with dragon dances, food stands, and traditional performances that draw thousands of visitors annually.
The district remains open late into the evening, with restaurants serving until 11 PM and supermarkets providing Asian ingredients until midnight.
Four ornate gates mark the district entrances, including the 2016 Wardour Street gate constructed by artisans using Qing dynasty architectural patterns.
