2015 New Gateway

Peace and Prosperity to Chinatown

The original three Paifang style gates to London Chinatown were compelted in 1986, and has stood proudly in place. To commermorate the UK China Year of Exchange, a new gate was planned to be situated in Wardour Street leading from Leicester Square. LCCA worked with Westminster Council and all local businesses in a major project which involved specialists from China and UK to engineer a beautiful and magnificent structure positioned to meet perfect Feng Shui. The foundations were laid on 9 July 2015 with the gate being made in Beijing by China's top Ching Dynasty gate builders who worked with UK's top engineers to make sure it met all local regulations. It is now amongst one of the most photographed landmarks in London.
