We enjoy strolling through China Town when in the Soho vicinity. It’s busy and noisy and vibrant, full of unusual sights and smells. We were pleased to see that the refuse/ street hygiene was much better than on our last visit.

Lots of Chinese restaurants to choose from, you will be spoilt for choice. Can get very busy. Lanterns cascade overhead.

I went to Chinatown, and for an emergency, I needed to exchange some cash because some of the shops only accepted cash. I found an exchanger nearby to exchange my 100 euros. However, she only gave me a very low amount of exchange, which was 20 pounds short. I felt really cheated and asked for my hundred euros back, but she ignored me and smiled. I showed her the exchange rate, but she continued to ignore me. So, please be cautious and avoid exchanging money at money exchangers in Chinatown.

We wondered about and chose Feng Shui restaurant to eat it. Very friendly vibe on the street, shame it rained on our exit of the restaurant we probably would’ve stayed around longer

Chinatown is a must-visit for all visitors to London. It's part and parcel of the unique experience of visiting the city.
Located in the fashionable, restaurant-laden area of SOHO, it's very easy to get to by bus and train. There are tons of options for meals.
Some in our party were driven to find recommended establishments for bubble-tea, pastries, baos, roast meats and other Asian foods based on popular tiktok videos.
We could instantly tell those food places as the lines were longest there including places like Sakurado, Yunique, Good Friend Chicken, Bun House, Bunsik, Chinatown Bakery and so many others. Everyone has their fave places and bucket list as a young visitor that you can tick and then post to social media. Such is the way it is these days.
You can easily spend half a day here if eating and social media if your thing!
