Calgary’s Chinatown boasts a rich heritage, tracing its origins back over a century to 1883 when Chinese pioneers first settled in Alberta. By June 1910, it found its permanent home on Centre Street along the striking Bow River, becoming a radiant hub of Asian culture and commerce in Canada. It is the fourth largest Chinatown in Canada.
At its heart stands the renowned Calgary Chinese Cultural Centre, an architectural marvel inspired by Beijing’s Temple of Heaven. This centre is dedicated to nurturing and supporting Calgary’s Chinese community. Additionally, the Dragon City Mall stands as the heart of Chinatown, housing a diverse array of shops and restaurants.
Sien Lok Park, established in 1968, remains a cherished gem within Chinatown. Nestled south of the Bow River, it serves as a testament to Chinese cultural preservation.
Moreover, Chinatown is a culinary paradise, offering a diverse array of Asian cuisines—from Chinese and Vietnamese to Korean, Japanese, and Thai.
The annual Calgary Chinatown Street Festival, held every August, commemorates Asian culture and heritage in the city.
