Chinatown Adelaide Parking

18 Moonta St, Adelaide SA 5000

Adelaide's Chinatown is conveniently nestled in the vibrant South East end of the CBD.

Soak up some Chinese culture at Adelaide’s own Chinatown.

Chinatown Adelaide is full of Chinese restaurants, grocery stores and markets, plus many non-Chinese Asian restaurants offering cuisines of Indian, Japanese, Korean, Malaysian, Nepali, Thai and Vietnamese origins.

The pagoda style roofs and red lanterns are found on Moonta Street, the centre of Chinatown. Traditional Chinese archways stand at the opposite entrances of Moonta street and are guarded by Chinese lion statues.
