Tucked beneath the bustling Taikoo Li and right next to the tranquil Daci Temple lies a quiet sanctuary — Fangsuo Bookstore. More than just a bookstore, it’s an aesthetic lifestyle space that blends books, exhibitions, café culture, fashion, and design into one immersive experience.
📖 Designed by renowned architect Zhu Zhi Kang, Fangsuo’s “underground scripture cave” concept evokes a fusion of ancient and futuristic knowledge. In fact, it was named one of the 15 Most Beautiful Bookstores in the World (2015)!
☕ Here, you can pick a book, sip on handcrafted coffee, and enjoy a peaceful afternoon escape in the city. The lighting and interiors are also perfect for 📸photography lovers—your shots will come out stunning! Most importantly, it is air-conditioned so it allows you to escape for the summer heat while you do your book shopping.
I also like that the bookshop carries a nice selection of souvenirs, teasets, and exquisite stationery in addition to books
📍 Location: B1, M068, Taikoo Li, Zhongshamao Street No.8, Jinjiang District, Chengdu
🚇 Getting there: Metro Line 1/2/3, Chunxi Road Station, Exit C

Whether you’re a bookworm, a creative soul, or just need a pause in your day, Fangsuo is a must-visit in Chengdu. ❤️
