Now, the "Chinatown" in Brisbane, Australia, is no longer the (Sunnybank) of Seniban. The traditional Ford Valley area, (Fortitude Valley), has gradually become an "old Chinatown", where not only high consumption but also difficult parking. Even the original design was designed to cater to Western tourists.
Fortitude Valley
Most of the young Chinese in Seniban are from mainland China or Taiwan. They see Ford Valley Chinatown as a nightclub hub in Brisbane rather than a cultural center for Chinese. Spend a day in Seniban, near the Mt Gravatt Shopping Center, and you'll think this is where Brisbane is the densest and most Chinese-savvy place to live.
Many of the young Chinese who live here are students from Griffith University. They felt that Ford Valley was built for tourists, not their generation. Most of the residents of (Sunnybank Hills), in Seniban District or the Seniban Mountains are from mainland China or Taiwan, while the residents of nearby Stretton,50% come from abroad. Most also come from mainland China or Taiwan. Stretton claims to have Brisbane's first-class Asian cuisine. You can find all kinds of restaurants in the two malls, whether Vietnamese, Chinese or Japanese. Some even claim to be oriental restaurants from the 1960s.
Sunnybank
Brisbane is Australia's third-largest city. Built in 1985, Ford Valley China is one of the unique gourmet, shopping and tourist sites that attract thousands of tourists from around the world each year. In order to meet the needs of urban development, Ford Valley Chinatown has been renovated since 2009. The project is supported by the sister city of Brisbane, Shenzhen City, in engineering design and so on.
Many Chinese living in Brisbane believe that Seniban has evolved into a real Chinatown in Brisbane over the past 20 years. Sunniban has a vast area of land, a large part of which is built by Chinese commercial vegetable growers. They agreed that it had developed into a true Chinatown, and that it was inevitable. Many nearby residents come here to shop because the Asian supermarkets, Asian meat shops and Asian bakeries can provide what they need.
