Chinatown is one of the busiest and most colourful areas of city centre Manchester. Situated just behind Piccadilly Plaza, around George Street and Charlotte Street, off Mosley Street behind the City Art Gallery, the area bustles with life - tradesmen and tourists alike, and is usually particularly well worth seeing on Sundays, when ethnic Chinese traders from all over the county have traditionally descended on the area to buy in food supplies from the proliferation of small shops, herbalists, gift shops, restaurants and markets. Sadly, the recent introduction of a few large out-of-town Chinese hypermarkets has somewhat reduced the popularity of Chinatown's small shops.

Apart from a profusion of Chinese Restaurants, there are many other ethnicities represented in Chinatown, including Thai, Malaysian, Singaporean, Nepalese, Italian, French and Japanese shops and restaurants.

For the food-seeker, there is a cornucopia of restaurants to choose from, both Cantonese and Pekingese, as well as other oriental restaurants.
