Washington DC has a pretty sad little Chinatown. It's basically a strip of chain stores and restaurants that also have their names written in Chinese.However, Chinatown does have one cool thin - the Chinatown Friendship Arch. The arch was designed by local architect Alfred H. Liu.
It was erected as a joint project between DC and our sister city - Beijing. It is supposedly the largest single span archway of its kind in the world. It is one of DC's more colorful pieces of public art.
