Nio House Bookstore

It's a popular bookstore in Shanghai, but it's not the books that make it popular, it's the architecture itself. The readability of the architecture makes it a great place to take photos and check in. Next to it is the old site of the Navy Club, which is also a great place to take photos. The most distinctive feature is a swimming pool, surrounded by popular restaurants, forming a park with Nio House Bookstore. Here, there are bookstores, coffee shops, popular restaurants, and distinctive architecture. It's a great place for a date, a meal, or an afternoon tea. You can easily spend an afternoon here. This place is called Shangsheng News Agency. You can get there by taking the subway line 11 to Shanghai Jiaotong University Station, or by taking the bus number 71 to Panyu Road Station. Both require a bit of walking. I don't think it's very convenient to drive, as parking is not convenient. It's more convenient to travel green.

The first branch of its kind to open in Shanghai, Tsutaya Books 📚 can be found in Columbia Circle in a villa that used to be the residence of Sun Yat Sen’s son. The store has been open for a just couple of months but has already taken Chinese social media by storm. A number of unique books can be found in Tsutaya - many of which we haven’t really found at other bookstores. Among them, there’s a particularly large selection of books related to art, as well as architecture and design. There’s also a small section of books in English. The store’s interior is characterized by narrow hallways and old fashioned woodwork, offering a contrast to many of Shanghai's newly opened, ultramodern stores. It’s worth a visit even if to just check out the architecture. Sculptures and other pieces of art can be found scattered among the shelves and shelves of books. A café can be found on the first floor just as you walk in. On the second floor, you’ll find a restaurant with Japanese-American style fusion cuisine. Try out dishes like gyoza hot wings , beer steamed mussels, and cheese ebi chili. Cocktails with literature-inspired names are also on the menu, like Between Calmness and Passion and Theory of Relativity. A meal with drinks will average out at around CNY300 per person. In all of its splendor, this bookstore is quite popular among locals looking for the next insta-worthy shot. For this reason, you’ll have to make a reservation in advance on the store’s WeChat mini program if you want to visit. 📍 Location: Columbia Circle, 1262 West Yan’an Road ⏰ Hours: 10:00–23:00 #shanghaistyle #shanghaichic #bookstore #bookshop  #lightthecity#urbanexplorer#hipsterbookstore
