PAMLA 2025 Excursion: Wok Wiz Chinatown Walking Tour

Join us on Sunday, November 23, 1:40–3:45 pm for a very special Wok Wiz Chinatown Walking Tour (reservations required; $40). Led by talented, area-native guides, this two-hour walking tour explores the history, folklore, architecture, culture, and food of San Francisco’s Chinatown.

Participants will stroll through bustling thoroughfares and colorful alleyways, with highlights including a visit to the famous fortune cookie factory and other hidden, off-the-beaten-path sites.

Meeting Point: Depart from the upper level of Portsmouth Square Park (745 Kearny St.), near the flagpole/elevators adjacent to the pedestrian bridge to the Hilton. Please arrive promptly by 1:40 pm.

PAMLA Tour Chaperone: Peter Schulman, PAMLA President and Professor of French and International Studies at Old Dominion University.
