CHINATOWN — Curious about traditional Chinese medicine? 

The Chinatown Chamber of Commerce invites you to take a walking tour of the neighborhood's pharmacies and health-related businesses, a follow-up to its first tour held earlier this year. 

The rain-or-shine event takes place 10-11 a.m. Saturday, beginning at the outdoor courtyard of Chinatown Square in the 2100 block of South Archer Avenue. 

From there participants will visit four local health-oriented tea shops, including a dried food store, herbal pharmacy, tea shop and health clinic.

Tickets are $25 and are available online.
