  • These are my top things to do in Chinatown, Chicago Illinois in 2021! In this vlog and guide, we cover things like Chinatown Food, Chinese Architecture, Parks, Shops, Boba Tea, Shaved Ice, Karaoke, and much more!
    Chinatown is a relatively small neighborhood that I mentally split up into three areas: Wenthworth Ave., Chinatown Square, and the Ping Tom Memorial Park. It is a short train ride from downtown, and you can even take the water taxi to this area. Let me know your thoughts on this list in the comments below!

    I've only been there one time. Been to Chicago several times, though I live in Indiana. My 6th grade teacher took the class to Chicago, and Chinatown. This video shows it's a lot different today than it was in 1971 when I was there.

    I live outside (northwest) of the city and I would love to go back there soon, because I enjoy the food and souvenir shops. For my birthday as a gift, my mom bought me a battery-operated golden cat statue that waves. Very cute. I've only been to one restaurant in Chinatown and I think it's out of business and that's Won Kow.
    I'm also amazed just how inexpensive merchandise is over there, considering it's in Chicago and they're imported.

    Is there any special parking 🅿️ somewhere or can we just park anywhere and walk around ?

  • @royfechter7291
    @royfechter7291 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You give helpful information - keep up the good job! Here’s a bit of advice though: look in the camera lens, that’s where your viewer is. You are looking away from your viewer if you’re looking at the camera’s viewfinder screen. A couple of inches makes a difference!

    • @WanderlustWellman
      @WanderlustWellman  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much! I’ll keep that in mind, I try and be authentic and want to connect with my viewers more so I’ll definitely work on it👍

      It depends on how many stores you go into and if you get any meals, but I would recommend a half day to a full day!

    Great video! Are you from Chicago? I’m looking at moving there with a great job offer. The crime stats you see all over tv make me nervous. I’m assuming most crime is in gang areas like most cities?

    • @WanderlustWellman
      @WanderlustWellman  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I only lived in Chicago for a year, so I wouldn't say I'm an absolute expert on the matter. What I will say is that most cities in the USA make me feel sketched out with the homeless people, swindlers, odd people on public transportation, etc. That being said, it is mostly localized to gang areas in the south side of Chicago. Crime still happens in traditionally more "safe" areas, but I honestly think if you have street smarts and stay out of trouble, it really isn't as big of an issue as you may think.

    Is there a place in Chicago where I can purchase a Tang Dynasty sword? I am doing a photoshoot with a clothing style from the Tang Dynasty. I already have most of the clothing. But I need an authentic reproduction sword from the Tang Dynasty time period. Thank you very much.

    It's not all that good. I was there the thing about it. The whole Chinatown itself has no public restrooms. Even the restaurants don't allow you to use their bathroom and your freaking dining in.🤯🤯
