Chinatown Real Estate

About 36,000 people of Chinese descent live in the city's thriving downtown Chinatown, centered on W Pender St at the base of the peninsula. You can seek a peaceful respite from the crowded sidewalks and shops at the Dr Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden, the only full-scale Chinese garden found outside China. The garden incorporates numerous examples of the Taoist principles of yin and yang, and you won't miss any of them if you take the guided tour, included in the admission fee. Partially hidden among bulkier neighbors is the World's Narrowest Office Building (also known as the Sam Kee Building), an architectural oddity listed in the Guiness Book of Records for its skinniness.
