Central Bookstore Introduction

A three-story semi-circular building with a米白色 exterior adorned with golden lettering of "Central Bookstore," is hard to imagine as an old bookstore. The Central Bookstore has thoughtfully preserved the best-lit areas for seating, and it combines a café and craft selections. It also features a children's section and a family area, making it ideal for a leisurely afternoon to enjoy a cup of coffee along with a good book.
