Lonely Planet review for Chinatown Gate & Park

The official entrance to Chinatown is the decorative gate, or paifong, a gift from the city of Taipei. It is symbolic – not only as an entryway for guests visiting Chinatown, but also as an entryway for immigrants who are still settling here, as they come to establish relationships and roots in their newly claimed home. Surrounding the gate and anchoring the southern end of the Rose Kennedy Greenway is the new Chinatown Park. Incorporating elements of Feng Shui, the park design is inspired by the many generations of Asian immigrants who have passed through this gate.
