Chinatown

This is one of the two Chinatown in Montreal. Located on La Gauchetière Street, it occupies roughly the area of a city block. A newer Chinatown is located south of Montreal Island in Brossard. Compared to the Chinatowns in Toronto and Vancouver, where the shops tend to close early, Montreal's Chinatown remains a vibrant nightspot for locals and tourists alike thanks to a special regulation by Montreal's city officials which slates the sector as a tourist area, thus allowing it to continue operations well into the evening. Almost any kind of Asian food is available, from Cantonese seafood to Vietnamese Pho restaurants, everything is featured in this Chinatown.
