Designed by Li Xiang from X+Living Studios, the swirling staircase is not just ornamental - it also serves as a bookcase in parts. There is plenty of room throughout the entire store to sit and read, and the four different rooms provide different perspectives on the reading experience. The use of black marble throughout the stores often contrast with the children's reading room - full of soft blues and pinks, plush furnishings and wooden chairs.

There are many Zhongshuge branches in China, each with its own characteristics. The one I visited this time is located in Songjiang District, Shanghai, in a Thames Town that is designed in British style. This Zhongshu Pavilion has two floors in total. There are books everywhere, including in the basement and on the stairs. It creates a visual effect of books everywhere, which is very atmospheric. The design of each room in the store (including the reading room, writing room and coffee room) is unique and full of artistic atmosphere. So this store is called "beautiful bookstore" by netizens👍🏻 #Shanghai Attractions #Zhongshuge #Good Place to Check In

In the European-style Thames Town, Zhongshuge is known as the most beautiful bookstore in China. This is also the first store of Zhongshuge. After that, it gradually spread to Shanghai and other places. The floor and ceiling are filled with mirrored books. There is also a starry sky reading area upstairs, which is great for taking photos and strolling! There are coffee and snacks in the store, but they are expensive and there are not many choices.

Shanghai's most beautiful bookstore, belonging to the urban literary landmark! Gao Yan value punch card If each bookstore, is the city's search password, then Zhong Shuge is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful imprint. For example, the keynote when entering the door is mainly gray, and the light and simple ins wind. The bookshelf was divided into "Nine Palaces", painted with European paintings and planet figures of retro texture. Further inside, it is a mirror space. On the star-studded ceiling, there are countless collections of books, and simple and quiet steps. You don't have to look for a soft stool or a chair, just under the soft, faint warm yellow light, you can enjoy the slightest reading. When you are in Zhongshuge, if the mirror is a folding space, then the book is the knowledge forest. They complement each other and become the ocean of truth and wisdom. Tips: There are a lot of tourists taking pictures on weekends, especially between 11 am and 3 pm, and between 6 and 9 pm. If you want to take photos of people who are less beautiful and literary, you can make good use of the "mirror effect" and try to punch in before the working day.

I went to Shanghai last time and stayed here for a long time. I don't know if I like reading books, or I like it here h Address: No. 930, Thames Town, 900 Sanxin North Road, Songjiang District

Zhong Shuge is known as the hall of books. I like to read books and buy books. I have to run a bookstore every time I go to a place. Speaking of the bookstore friends recommended Zhong Shuge, here is not only quite stylish, but also suitable for taking pictures. On the first floor, it is the most ideal appearance of human reading, and the second floor is the scene of Heaven Reading. It satisfies the needs of scholars and meets the requirements of passers-by photography. The soul of the entire bookstore, which was created by the book, is full of vitality. Equipped with a small number of drinks, it is only for the reader to run the throat. As soon as you enter the bookstore, you can see the books displayed under the glass floor in an orderly manner. If you look carefully, you will find books behind the stairs leading to the second floor. On the second floor, like many new bookstores that have appeared in these years, tables, chairs, sofas, and coffee bars have been set up in response to the trend.

Songjiang District in southwestern Shanghai is a place of sentiment. There is not only a profound history and culture, but also an exotic atmosphere. Bringing up the Thames town is not just a Shanghainese, but many outsiders know that this is a residential area built in British style. The community is like a British town, with exotic streets and buildings, churches, lawns, and more wedding photography shops. The couple who come here every day to make wedding dresses are endless. Guo Jingming's film "Little Age" is also shot in the Thames town, making this community a petty literary gathering area for young people, but in the Thames town, there is also a famous bookstore. Zhong Shuge, known as the most beautiful bookstore in China, has opened its first bookstore in the town of Thames in Songjiang since 2013. Many tourists have come here. Today, this bookstore has opened eight stores, not only in Shanghai has also opened to Hangzhou, Suzhou, Yangzhou and Chengdu. More tourists come to the bookstore to take pictures. After all, it is rare to have such an elegant bookstore. The bookstore is divided into two levels, and the bookshelves are filled with books, but it is not easy to find the one you need from so many books. The bookstore is designed like a coffee shop. There is a special reading area where visitors can sit down and order a cup of coffee or a pot of tea to read a book quietly.
