About Chinatown and Haymarket
Capturing the colour and excitement of Asian streetlife, Chinatown and Haymarket offer an exciting mix of restaurants, food halls, noodle bars and quirky gift shops. Bargain-shops and Asian supermarkets also bring many visitors to the area, especially on weekends. Paddys Markets are open daily.
The busy streets in this Sydney city area have become a late-night entertainment precinct, with bars, theatres and cinemas pulsating into the night. Check out the Thai food and Korean cuisine that's become well established in the neighbourhood. Chinatown is a 15-minute walk from Circular Quay.
