HOW TO FIND US
Chung King Road is a pedestrian-only road that runs parallel to Hill Street, between Hill St and Yale St.
You can access Chung King Road from the north and south ends (each adjacent to a parking lot) or from the main entry to the street: This can be accessed from Hill St., smack dab in the middle of the block between the 110 off-ramp and College St, on the North-West side of Hill. Look for the water feature (check out the koi!), walk past it, and hang a left into Chung King Road. We’re at the end of the street, near the currently gated parking area for the medical center.
Chinatown is a family neighborhood with plenty of night-life; pleasant and safe to walk in.

PAID LOTS: There is a paid lot on the north-east side of Chung King Road, off Hill Street. There are also several other paid lots around the neighborhood, including a large one on Bernard Street between Hill and Broadway.
