Manhattan's Chinatown, Canal Street NYC Subway


I enjoy winding down my weekend by partaking in the Sunday ritual of brunch. Dim Sum, in Manhattan's Chinatown, was last weeks culinary escape, yum!

The main artery of Chinatown is Canal street. Overflowing with shoppers seeking treasures of cheap stuff and fresh food or cars connecting to the Manhattan Bridge and Holland Tunnel this area is always bustling. Thankfully I don't have a car so I never have to fight the traffic! Instead I engage with Chinatown by way of the 6 subway line and exit at Canal Street. I love getting off at this stop. To me it feels like the heart of Chinatown because the view of the lovely red pagoda type building is so welcoming.
