If you've ever been to a Chinatown (New York, San Francisco, etc.) the Chinese Cultural Plaza on O'ahu will be something of a familiar sight. In the heart of Honolulu's Chinatown, this plaza is surrounded by diverse businesses, from restaurants and travel agencies to herbalists and acupuncturists. The plaza itself is situated in the midst of a modern commercial district, surrounded by all sorts of shops. The center of the plaza proudly displays a statue of Asian political figure Sun Yat-Sen.
