I never went to Oaklands, so I can't say, as a tourist I was told to stay away from there. How ever I think alot of it has to do with the fact that in terms of plurality, chinese are the largest demographic in SF. It really just has that err "flavor" i suppose. Very unique.
And how are we defining "best?" San Francisco's is older, New York's is larger. (Actually, New York now has two fairly distinct Chinatowns--the one everyone knows in Manhattan, and the much more recent offshoot colony spreading across the Sunset Park section of Brooklyn).
if you were blind folded, and dropped off in the mddle of the honolulu chinatown, you would actually think you were in china. the streets of the china town there, really looks like china.
I don't know but those pictures are awesome. Wish Houston had a China town like those
Houston is dominated way too heavily by the Vietnamese for a Chinatown to develop like these cities. Add to that the hyperdependence on car travel, it will never happen.
Houston's Asiatown is basically a enormous cluster of strip malls.
