*Learn about the history, architecture, folklore, culture and food of America's largest Chinatown
*Visit a Taoist and Buddhist temple
*Enjoy a visit to a premier Chinese teashop
*See murals by local urban artists
*Nibble samples of freshly prepared fortune cookies while you see the fascinating process of making them.
*Peek into side streets and alleyways, following the heady scent of a Chinese herbal shop
