About this audio guide
This guide to Chinatown Mall in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, follows the pair of stone guardian lions that have stood at its Tang-dynasty-style gate since the mall opened in nineteen eighty-seven, and the Hollywood film crew that arrived here in nineteen ninety-five. You will hear how Jackie Chan's production for First Strike turned Duncan Street into a movie set, and what the same shoot got up to on the Sunshine Coast with a very different kind of guardian. Best heard standing under the gate itself, looking up at the pagoda roof.
