This could be a double definition.

'dresden' is the first definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'canton perhaps' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'or' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chinatown that I've seen before include "Oriental area of a city" , "area dominated by Asian influences" , "film by Polanski" , "District where most are of Far Eastern origin" , "where Asians live" .)
