Chinatown is a vibrant part of Newcastle but we wonder if you will remember these scenes from the past.
The Stowell Street and surrounding streets of the city get our attention in these views which all come to us courtesy of the Newcastle Photo Archive.
They span from the early 1900s to 2022 and show everything from a former Chinese tea merchants to Bourgogne’s bar and buffet.
Have a look through and see how many of these scenes bring back happy memories for you.
