(Alternately known as China-town) An historic district where the first Chinese railroad workers settled after building the railroad. They were met with much hostility from the white community and there were riots against them. Much of this history is displayed at the Wing Luke Museum, which celebrates the cultures of China, Japan, The Philippines, Korea and others.
