Chinatown (Chinese: 唐人街; Pinyin: Tángrénjiē; Shanghainese: Daon'ninka) is an inner-city suburb in the Wentworth central business district. It is one of the largest Chinese enclaves outside of East Asia, and a centre of Chinese Enderronian culture and business. In particular, it is a major hub for Shanghainese and Cantonese Enderronians in Wentworth. It is the largest Chinatown in Enderron.
The neighbourhood is located directly northeast of the city's cultural centre, Luscombe. Although it is considerably less of an enclave as it once was, it maintains a strongly concentrated Chinese identity, and forms a vital part of the CBD. It is a major tourist destination in Wentworth, with a diverse mix of restaurants and shopping. Since 1985, a section of Rose Street in central Chinatown has been a pedestrianised mall with weekly night markets. Since the 2000s, Chinatown has faced rapid gentrification, particularly towards its northern boundary. Restrictive heritage planning laws and local opposition to large-scale development have resulted in the suburb largely maintaining its historical character in contrast with the surrounding area.
