    Hiking

    The South Gate on Grant St at Bush St is probably the best known entrance to San Francisco's China Town, as it faces downtown. Grant is the most active street lined with tourist shops and restaurants and slow-moving one-way South-North traffic, technically ending at Broadway where Little Italy/North Beach begins, but Chinese meanwhile own most of North Beach, Telegraph hill and Russian Hill neighborhoods as well.
    Parallel to Grant St is Stockton St, more actively used by Chinese themselves with dozens of Chinese-language-only shops, eateries, and groceries spilling out to the sidewalks.
    San Francisco's Chinatown is probably the oldest and most tighly-knit in the country, with some of its 20'000+ residents looking back on 5 or more generations after immigration yet still without speaking English. From school to shopping to voting in local or state or national elections, their whole life can function entirely in Chinese.
