In October, when autumn is getting darker, this historic and cultural city welcomes the first Chinese-themed bookstore, "Shangs Bookstore".
Shans Bookstore is located at No. 61, Manas Street, Bishkek. In addition to Chinese and Kyrgyz books, various Chinese talent shows and activities will also be held. It seems that the street of Manas is about to become a favorite place for book lovers in this country.
There are also some beautiful bookstores on the streets of Chengdu, some with a noble and mysterious temperament, some with a comfortable and charming environment, or some with warm and touching stories.
Next, we will walk through the streets of Chengdu and start a journey to find the most beautiful bookstores in Chengdu for book lovers.
My first memory of Chengdu Bookstore was when I was a child. When I was in junior high school, I liked to pick up books and magazines at the Sichuan Book Market. I studied mathematics, physics, chemistry and English there, so I was very familiar with this place. Before moving, its address was on Lihua Street, which is named after pear blossoms. Every time I come here, it is a busy scene. I see many people buying books here. I wonder how many old Chengdu people remember this place. Until one day in high school, I came here and it moved away. I used to look for food nearby while reading here. There was a Korean bibimbap across the street that was very delicious. It contained meat, chicken legs, eggs, vegetables, rice, and was mixed with seasonings. It was especially delicious. It feels nutritious. There are also rice noodles next to the book market, surrounded by mirrors. The taste is very sour and spicy, and it is very refreshing. I ate it all the way from junior high school to high school, and even brought my classmates to eat it. It was difficult for me to understand the book market's relocation at the time. How could it be moved immediately after a disagreement.
When I was in high school, I had to change my position and go to the Chengdu Book Buying Center at Gaoshengqiao intersection to read. Later I learned that it was not only the largest bookstore in the western region, but also the first bookstore in the country that allowed readers to read books in the store.
Later, I discovered that many bookstores had sprung up in Chengdu, and many bookstores had even become tourist attractions, so I began to search and explore.
"Slow life" is a unique way of life in Chengdu. With coffee and desserts, books, sunshine and a rocking chair, a day of comfortable and comfortable time can be spent perfectly, or you can just quietly read a book for an afternoon. Chengdu people love books and reading, and there are already more than 700 physical stores in Chengdu. This is something Chengdu people who are artistic to the core love. There are many pleasant lifestyles in Chengdu. During this period, I specially searched for and explored the aesthetics of bookstores in Chengdu.
Some people say, "If you want to understand the cultural temperament of a city, go to its bookstores."
Cat’s Sky City, an independent bookstore, was first attracted by its name. Naming it after an animal has a lot of room for imagination. Its decorative facade is made of wood and inlaid glass. When you take photos, you feel like you should be here, and the people and the bookstore are integrated.
Cat’s Sky City operates niche books: travel, art, picture books, and literature. The cultural and creative area of the store sells a variety of literary and artistic items: postcards, hand-painted maps, souvenirs, etc. The highlight of its home is the postcard theme "Send to the Future".
On the right side of the door is a postcard wall, where you can write your expectations and words for your future self, and write down your wish list for your future self. You can also write your blessings to your friends and other words. When that day comes, Cat’s Sky City will be sent to you or others at that time. At that time, you can check how many items on your wish list you have completed, and then keep trying!
I suddenly want to ask you how long it has been since you looked up at the sky? Each of us is a product of habits. We are used to working from 9 to 5, are used to the same routine, and are used to walking the same path every day. It’s time to inject fresh blood and breathe fresher oxygen. Reading and walking can help us find a more perfect self, make our dreams concrete, and make us like a different life. Each of us is looking forward to our own "city in the sky". Cat's Sky City

The old bookworm gives me the feeling of "Friends" , as soon as I walked in, I saw some foreigners chatting happily at a very low volume, and I also saw some Chinese people, who must be English lovers, or gathering with foreign friends. Almost all are original books in English. It is said that there are more than 5,000 English books. It also provides Western-style light meals and authentic and mellow coffee. It is open until one o'clock every day and is more like a warm home. There are only three Bookworms in the country, and Chengdu is one of them.
