Vanaf de jaren dertig van de twintigste eeuw migreerden de Chinese Amerikanen naar deze wijk. Tegenwoordig staat deze buurt bekend om het jaarlijkse Chinese New Year festival, de parade en de Friendship Arch: een grote Chinese poort. Deze poort komt uit 1986 en symboliseert de vriendschap tussen Washington en de zusterstad Beijing. Het kostte Washington maar liefst \u00e9\u00e9n miljoen dollar om het prachtwerk te bouwen, maar dan heb je ook wat. Loop langs de gezellige restaurants, door de winkelstraatjes en neem de ontspannen sfeer in je op. Het lijkt er bijna op dat je even in China zelf bent. Het leuke aan deze buurt is trouwens dat de Starbucks en Subway een Chineestalig reclamebord hebben!<\/p>\n
