Chinese People and Culture in Colorado and the U.S.A
Chinese immigrants first came to the U.S.A. around 1860 as laborers due to the California gold rush and the construction of the Central Pacific Railroad. Some stayed in Colorado and brought Chinese culture to the Rocky Mountains. Now, there are 47,000 Chinese living in Colorado, and they actively contribute cultural elements to Colorado society through Chinese language schools, festivals, art, music, and businesses.
In the following months of 2025, the editor of this newsletter will focus on the history of Chinese immigration, key events and figures, stories, and cultural impact in Colorado and the U.S.A.
