If These Walls Could Talk: Mural Art on the Streets and Alleys of San Francisco's Chinatown



San Francisco's Chinatown is an explorer's paradise, a colorfully textured cornucopia of sights, sounds, aromas that raised the bar on rich history and expression. It was not long after I arrived in this oldest and largest Chinatown in the USA that I was out hitting the pavement just trying to soak it all in.

Below are samples of the mural or wall art that embellishes the walls along Chinatown's streets and alleyways. I hope these images provide your eyes with an unforgettable feast!
