Embark on an immersive stroll through historic Chinatown, where I’ll lead you on a journey through its landmarks and the fascinating world of Chinese herbalism. As we wander, I’ll share insights into the medicinal properties of Chinese health foods and answer any questions you have. Our itinerary includes stops at iconic sites like the Museum of Chinese in America and visits to New Kam Man Supermarket and Po Wing Hong Food Market, where you’ll discover a treasure trove of traditional herbs and ingredients.
As your guide, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to this experience. Having served on the staff of a Chinese herbal medicine company, also used to be a journalist, and pursued ongoing education in Chinese herbal history, I am eager to share insights and anecdotes with fellow herbal enthusiasts.
