The West End of London is not far from Chinatown.

London Chinatown, also known as Chinatown or London Chinatown, is located in the Soho district (SOHO) in central London where land is at a premium. The Chinese community in London emerged in the 19th century and was initially concentrated in the Eastern Dockyard area. In the 1950s, many Hong Kong immigrants poured in. Chinatown has since taken root in Juerlu Street and Lisle Street in the SOHO district in the city center. In 1985, the London government officially recognized the Chinese community in London. The port is the Chinatown community. Today's Chinatown is no longer a place where immigrants live, but a paradise for cheap and big bowls of food in London. There are standard Chinese-style archways and Han-style and Tang-style business pavilions. Restaurants, shopping malls, pharmacies, etc. on both sides of the street have conspicuous Chinese characters hanging on them. On both sides of the main street, which is about 800 meters long, stands an archway with the words "Guotai Minan" and "London Huafu" written on it. In July 2016, the new archway "China Taiping Archway" in London's Chinatown was unveiled. It was specially designed by Chinese architects according to the traditions of the Qing Dynasty. This archway with traditional Chinese cultural characteristics has become a new landmark of London's Chinatown. The plaques on the front and back are engraved with "China's Peace" and "Britain's Prosperity" respectively, expressing the overseas Chinese's love for their motherland and their beautiful yearning for British life.
