Event Description:

Let's explore the city together!
Bring your friends and family and let's re-connect with the city we all love. This time, we will venture into one the most exciting planets of NYC: Chinatown. A neighborhood with many flavors, cultures, languages - and the second home of our guides. Meet the people who are rescuing, reviving and reinventing this historic place - and get some souvenirs on the way!
 
What is Walk Awesome? 
Walk Awesome is an immersive walking tour through New York City’s neighborhoods, connecting you with the most fascinating people and places moving our city forward. Participants learn to see the city through the eyes of architects, designers and entrepreneurs and experience them in intimate conversations, all while walking and interacting with each other. Led and developed by journalist & entrepreneur Felix Zeltner in partnership with the German-American Chambers of Commerce, this 1.5-hour immersive walking tour with convenient bluetooth headphones leaves you with a new understanding about the future of New York City.
