How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The dense downtown neighbourhood of narrow streets, shopfronts and fire escapes south of Canal Street.
The real place
Manhattan's Chinatown grew up from the 1870s around Mott, Pell and Doyers Streets and is one of the largest Chinese communities outside Asia. Doyers Street, with its sharp bend, is one of the oldest corners of the district.
Visiting
Walk Mott Street and Doyers Street, and visit the Museum of Chinese in America on Centre Street. Most dim sum halls are busiest late on weekend mornings.
