Abstract
The Seven Star Caverns Wishing Pool is the representation of an actual scenic location in the Guangdong province in China. Due to the growth of immigration in America, a Chinese-American artist created a miniature replica of the Seven Star Crags in the heart of Los Angeles County, in the city of Chinatown. This paper mainly introduces the history of this scenic site which is an important cultural symbol for Chinese immigrates in America as well and tries to arouse people’s attention to its value.
