7. This was the first trip to Chinatown for all members of
our group. We had only known of Chinatown through
television shows/movies and from our friends who had
visited. We enjoyed seeing the diversity Chinatown offered.
Each store we visited gave us a unique view of the Chinese
culture. Everything from advertisements to menus and signs
were written in Chinese. Very little English was spoken in
Chinatown.
This trip helped spark our curiosity about the diverse
cultures and neighborhoods in Chicago. Each neighborhood
is unique, but essential in the Chicago experience. We can
learn more about our city and ourselves by visiting each
neighborhood.
