Situated on the east side of the Don River in South Riverdale, "Little Chinatown" is a sizeable, vibrant, smaller version of "Big Chinatown" on Spadina Avenue. Located on Gerrard Street, from Broadview to Jones, the neigbourhood definitely provides great restaurants and an immersion in Toronto's Asian experience. Take the "College/Carlton" Streetcar east from Yonge and get out at Broadview, then stroll the neighbourhood. Be sure not to miss the view from Riverdale Park East. Just a few hundred metres north of the Gerrard intersection on Broadview, the panorama from the Sun Yat Sen monument across the peaceful Don River Valley affords one of the best views of downtown from anywhere in the city.
