DOWNTOWN PHILADELPHIA IS HIGHLIGHTED WITH SECTIONS FULL OF ART. THE DOWNTOWN AREA OF PHILLY OFFERS A NUMEROUS NUMBER OF ART OPTIONS YOU CAN VISIT DAILY INCLUDING THE ART MUSEUM, FRANKLIN INSTITUTE, PHILADELPHIA ART MUSEUM, AND IF YOU WERE HIP TO CULTURE ART YOU WOULD INVOLVE CHINA TOWN HIGHLY AS AN ART. AS SOON AS YOU WALK INTO THE HEART OF CHINATOWN YOU CAN FEEL THE CHINESE ART CULTURE. IF YOU LOOK ABOVE IN THE PHOTO PROVIDED FOR THIS POST WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT IS A VIVID PHOTO OF PHILADELPHIA'S ENTRANCE WALKING INTO CHINA TOWN, IT'S DOPE. THAT'S NOT THE ONLY ART PIECE CHINA TOWN VALUES. WALKING INTO CHINA TOWN'S BOOK STORES, $1 DOLLAR STORES, CLOTHING THRIFT STORES, LIVE SEAFOOD MARKETS, AND MINI MARKETS WHERE THEY CARRY REAL TOKYO CANDY AND FOODS ARE DOPE. ALL OF THESE SHOPS MENTIONED HAVE A UNIQUE STYLE TO THE STORE AND THERE IS MORE THAN ONE. WITH CHINA TOWN RESTAURANTS THEY LOOK SMALL AND MAY NOT LOOK LOUD OUTSIDE BUT ONCE YOU STEP IN YOU WILL BE SHOCKED. LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO EAT IN CHINA TOWN YOU SHOULD NEVER JUDGE BOOK BY IT'S COVER, YOU WILL BE THE ONE TAKING THE LOST SO MAKE SURE YOU TAKE A STEP IN THESE RESTAURANTS.
BUT WHAT REALLY CATCHES THE EYES OF ART IN CHINATOWN IS THE ONE AND ONLY SNEAKER BOUTIQUE ABAKUS. FOR THOSE THAT HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT ABAKUS IS AND YOUR LIVING IN THE PHILADELPHIA AREA YOU SHOULD GET TO KNOW YOUR CITY AND WHAT IT OFFERS. ABAKUS IS HIGHLY RESPECTED BY MYSELF JUST ON THE FACT THAT I HAVE SEEN THEM GROW INTO SOMETHING REALLY SPACIAL.THE ART AND INTERIOR DESIGN ALONE OF THE ABAKUS SNEAKER BOUTIQUE WILL HAVE YOU APPRECIATING THE SHOP. THREE YEARS DOWN THE ROAD ABAKUS IS STILL CARING ON THEIR "ABAKUS TORCH" HIGH IN THE AIR AND BY THE LOOKS OF EVERYTHING FOR THE TEAM THE COMPANY IS ONLY GETTING STRONGER BY THE DAY. KY, RICK, JUSTINE, AND JACKSON HAVE CREATED A GOOD THING FOR PHILADELPHIA AND AN EVEN BETTER LOOK FOR CHINA TOWN. WHEN EVER YOUR IN THE CITY AND YOU NEED TO CATCH UP ON SOME FRESH STREET WEAR CLOTHING OR OG JORDAN'S MAKE A SPOT IN CHINATOWN TO PAY A VISIT TO ABAKUS, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED. THE ART OF CHINA TOWN KIILS!
