Cite Book Store

From our archives, Compass Magazine, OCT. 2002

       This attractive little book store is owned by the Cite Publishing Group and is the second on the island after a first store in Taipei. Located opposite and just down the road from T.G.I. Friday’s, it is attached to an equally nice-looking Dante Cafe branch, which opens earlier and has seating on the first floor and an upstairs balcony area that overlooks the books. There are plenty of books and magazines (Chinese only) on a variety of subjects, including travel, computers, architecture and children’s stories. Many specials are offered, such as NT$99 for one magazine and NT$199 for three. One unique touch is store’s separating books into sections for various publishing companies, including Rye Field Publishing, H20 Book Publishing, Marco Polo Press, Grimm Press, Cube, Mook Publications, and–of course–Cite Publishing Group.–By Douglas Habecker
