The Meaning of the Chinatown Gate

(photo credit Linda See)

The gate is more than just a  decoration that looks cool. The words on it have meaning.
In fact Paul Chan explains a little bit of it in the video at 1:51


The plaque at the bottom of the gate looks new. But it's definitely important. Now all the tourists that visit can know what the pretty characters stand for.
