Mexicali: The Chinese outpost at the US Border

It’s a town on the U.S.- Mexico border with roots in China.

The first Chinese immigrants settled in the border town of Mexicali over a hundred years ago.

Their legacy endures in La Chinesca – the largest “Chinatown” in Mexico.

CGTN met up with one of the locals for a tour of the town.
