The Seattle Chinese Times (traditional Chinese: 西城時報; simplified Chinese: 西城时报; pinyin: Xīchéng shíbào) is a United States-based free bilingual weekly newspaper which was launched its first edition in May 2004 by Deng Rihua (邓日华). [3]

The contents comprise news reports, and editorials concerning the lifestyle and culture of the Chinese/Asian ethnic group in the Greater Puget Sound and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in the northwest.

That same year saw the introduction of the "Canada Section", featuring events and activities in Canada; restaurants, entertainment, feature articles, and celebrity interviews. In April 2007, the Northwest Edition, Greater Seattle Edition and Metropolitan Edition were launched.
