A compelling and visual walking tour through the history of Chinatown and Liverpool’s Chinese community
You might have grown up in Liverpool, or perhaps this is the first time you’re hearing these stories. That’s exactly the point: there is always more to uncover. The history of Chinatown is not just about the celebrations at Lunar New Year but between places, people, and identities. How did the movement of people between China and Liverpool shape our city? How do those strands help us reimagine the community today?
Artists and researchers Beatrice Png and Emily Beswick have crafted a walking tour about the history of Chinatown and its communities. Drawing on their previous research and tour experience, they use personal narratives and visual sources to bring stories to life.
