Abstract
Visual landscapes mark location and representation. When considering Argentine Chinatown, its visual markings reflect stereotypic Chinese elements, hybridisation with local culture, and the ‘invasion’ of space. These visuals help locate and ‘authenticate’ the place, thereby legitimising tourists’ gaze. They also provide clues to its past and future direction. Visual landscapes are not only aesthetic place-markers but are also the embodiment of that space.
