[On The Same Page] On the Same Page x Chinese Historical Society of America (CHSA) present: San Francisco Chinatown Walking Tour

On this tour, participants will learn the ways in which Chinatown has always been, and often still continues to be, its own independent, self-sufficient community. Participants will look at several historical institutions in Chinatown and the impact that they have on the neighborhood today. We will begin with a one-hour walking tour of Chinatown (11:00 AM-12:00 noon), followed by a self-guided exploration of the Chinese Historical Society of America (CHSA) museum starting at 12:00 noon.

This event is a part of On the Same Page, UC Berkeley’s way of welcoming our new students into the intellectual community. Each year, we feature a book, theme, or other work of art to provide the focus of a range of events, courses, and activities that bring our new students into contact with each other and our faculty. This year’s featured book is INTERIOR CHINATOWN by Charles Yu.
