Chengdu's Sisyphe Bookstore (Kuanzhai Alley branch) is an unexpectedly discovered treasure, hidden within the Kuanzhai Alley. The store's interior design and overall color scheme are delightful. Despite being located in a bustling tourist spot, it remains tranquil. The bookstore has a tea and chat area outside, and inside, it provides a quiet reading environment. The decor imparts an inexplicable sense of calm, both in its facade and interior design, which are neither ostentatious nor mundane. Moreover, the bookstore offers a rich variety of books.
On one side of the bookstore is the book area, and through the corridor is a creative shop, filled with exquisite goods. The variety of unique items makes it hard to leave, and choosing becomes a challenge. The prices are reasonable, but one can easily empty their wallet if not careful. Therefore, it's wise to choose carefully; I picked out some small gifts for the children, and they were delighted.
This bookstore adds a literary atmosphere to the attraction. The layout is well-organized, the environment is comfortable and pleasant, and the wide range of books attracts many customers. Visitors can take a break here and browse through books that are hard to find elsewhere. Such an experience is very enjoyable.
