Eslite Bookstore - A Palace of Reading and Life Aesthetics

#September2025

Eslite Bookstore is one of Taiwan's most iconic cultural landmarks. Since its founding in 1989, Eslite Bookstore has embraced the concept of "a bookstore is more than just selling books," integrating reading, art, design, music, and lifestyle. The store not only offers a diverse selection of books, but also features exhibition spaces, a café, and a selection of cultural and creative products, allowing visitors to enjoy the aesthetics of life amidst the fragrance of books. Some Eslite stores are even known for their 24-hour operation, making them a popular destination for night owls and travelers. Whether seeking knowledge, experiencing the cultural landscape, or simply sitting down to read, Eslite is a vital window into Taiwan's cultural landscape.
