Many people say that they love life less and less.
I'd love to say it's because there's no life.
If the days go too fast, why not come to these bookstores for a sit.
I once had a good friend who said that his biggest dream was to open his own bookstore in a comfortable place.
You can give lectures, do sharing, and listen to other people's stories.
It feels very similar to the visual sense of the Taiwanese movie "Waiting for a Cafe".
As someone who "used not to love reading so much", I have never felt that bookstores can have such a great charm.
It wasn't until this good friend left Beijing and I grew up that I felt it more and more.
How happy it is to be able to soak in a favorite bookstore quietly.
Now in Beijing, there are more and more bookstores in my good friend's dream!

Sanlian Taofen Bookstore—the earliest 24-hour bookstore in Beijing

In Beijing, Sanlian Taofen was the earliest 24-hour bookstore.
There was a time when, in order to encourage myself to read, I would go to the bookstore regularly on weekends with the teenager who loves to read and other colleagues.
The earliest location is at No. 22, Art Museum East Street, Dongsi, Beijing. It seems that this location is temporarily closed.

That would be because the bookstore has limited seats, and everyone basically sat on the floor, or sat on the sunken stairs in an orderly manner.
I think this should be a more iconic landscape back then. There are probably more people who read books than buy books.

When I saw Sanlian Taofen again, I was already opposite the 33 Building in Sanlitun.
An even bigger independent bookstore than ever before.
The exterior decoration is all wooden structure, like a big wooden box.

Inside is a clean industrial style. There are many categories of books, and what I do most often is that if I come to Sanlitun to meet friends, I will first stay in this bookstore for a while.

Sanlian Taofen Bookstore (Sanlitun Store)——No. 43, Sanlitun North Street (opposite the West Gate of 3.3 Building)——24 hours
Sanlian Taofen Bookstore (Haidian Branch)——Block D, Tsinghua Tongfang Science and Technology Plaza, Wangzhuang Road——9:00-21:00

Page One——The Holy Land of Online Celebrity Bookstores

It is the second 24-hour bookstore I have contacted more in Beijing.

When I first came here, there were not so many merchants in Beijing Fangfang, but this bookstore was already a very iconic online celebrity check-in resort at that time. I feel that there are more people taking pictures than reading books, and more people reading books than buying books.

A little Beidiao like me really didn't want to buy a book and go back to pile up ashes, so he simply finished reading it here and went home.
Because when I really don’t want to face moving, it’s all books.

coordinate:
Page One (Beijing Fangdian)——Meishi Street Langfang Toutiao No. 13 Courtyard 1-3F, Building 1 (near MUJI hotel)——24 hours
Page One (Sanlitun Store)—S2-14, Floor 1, South Taikoo Li, Sanlitun, No. 19 Sanlitun North Road——10:00-22:00
Page One (Indigo)——No. 18 Jiuxianqiao Road (No. 50, B1 Floor, Indigo Commercial Center, near Jiangtai Metro)——10:00-22:00

Sisyphus Bookstore - more than 20 exquisite retro bookstores

I did a rough check, and there were probably 20+, so I was too scared to list them. too exaggerated.
Come to think of it, I have already been to 4 of them myself.

It is a marketing model integrating bookstore + coffee. So even if I don't read a book, I occasionally meet here for coffee.

This bookstore is mainly hidden in various large shopping malls, especially like encountering a retro bookstore in Europe in a movie in a shopping mall.

Small and exquisite, with a complete bibliography and some cute little groceries.

I especially like the service quotation of Sisy Free Bookstore, "The backpack is too heavy, save it! Standing is too tired, do it! The purchase is too expensive, copy it! If you have an opinion, please mention it!" This is probably the most blatant way to encourage everyone to stay Read books instead of buying books in bookstores.

If you don't want to take the book back to ashes, you can sit down and drink a cup of vector coffee, sit like everyone else for a whole day, and take yourself to the world you want.

Time in Paradise——Paradise is probably what a bookstore looks like

This bookstore is completely different from the previous three. It is the cafe I found by accident in Beiluoguxiang after running a half-marathon——Paradise Time.

I think the books here should not be sold, but mainly used for reading (of course, I didn’t confirm with the boss whether it is a collection of books, and I don’t sell them). This should be the closest to the bookstore in my little friend's mind.

The main products sold are Tibetan yogurt, milk tea, handmade specialty coffee (black coffee and milk coffee) and half-cooked cheese.

The boss looks like there is a story. The postcards here are taken by the boss himself during his travels. The coffee beans here are also roasted by themselves.

I like lightly roasted coffee beans with a bright, fruity flavor. I usually drink Yirgacheffe, but this time I tried the hand-brewed Kenyan black coffee at the suggestion of the boss.

It happened that during this time, I was obsessed with coffee, so I picked a book related to coffee and nestled on the sofa. The sofa here is super magical and comfortable enough to fall asleep. Coming here is like going to the comfortable living room of my sister's house, picking up a favorite book, drinking a cup of coffee, and slowly falling asleep with my fat.

This is probably the idea of ​​the boss's business. Paradise is probably what a bookstore looks like. Here, I just feel the time in heaven. If you also feel that heaven is too far away, then come to this bookstore first.

Xiaodao - a bookstore that has never been in before

It is Gao Xiaosong's bookstore, which is so popular that it has been passing by, passing by, without making an appointment. too red!
No appointment, no photo taking.

Probably I want you to be quiet, in this lonely outlying island inside, to seriously disconnect from the Internet and read books.

I will try my best to make an appointment, and I hope everyone can make an appointment as soon as possible.
If you can’t make an appointment, just go to the nearby READWAY Shanghai Sanlian Bookstore.

One-way Street Library - a bookstore popular because of its surroundings

The one-way street library impresses me the most is not the books, but the "peripherals".
The one-way calendar that was once very popular is something we will always buy.
It feels like a bookstore with strong peripheral marketing.

Fanden Bookstore - Learning Center for Shared Resources

Fan Deng Bookstore was born on the basis of Fan Deng Reading Club.
Because I have been using the book club app to listen to books for a while, so I have a high degree of favorability for the book club.
Fan Deng saved my reading time by lecturing. Sometimes when I hear a book that interests me, I will find it again.
This bookstore is more of a center for offline activities and learning for members. It is a good place to promote the docking of resources and learn from each other.
There are often various interesting activities here, and it can be said that it is very close to my friend's ideal bookstore.
If you want to get in touch with more contacts and meet new friends, this is the perfect place.
(The above picture is from the little brother who is the partner of the book club, a very good brother, full of positive energy)

There are some other references

CITIC Bookstore - mainly distributed in various shopping malls
Mao’s Sky City concept bookstore—mainly distributed in various shopping malls
Opportunity Space - No. 2 Jiuxianqiao Road, Beijing 798 Art District D District

These are all good bookstores that I have scanned in a hurry

write at the end

As a weak student, I actually don't know that I have been to so many bookstores.
Probably because of the influence of my friends, I also hope that one day I can become a barista if my hand pouring skills are not too poor. When I am busy, I can make a cup of warm specialty coffee for lovely customers, and browse through my favorite coffee in my spare time. Books, listen to other people's stories.
If you also have a good bookstore, welcome to recommend it to me! We can go to the bookstore together!
