Tsutaya Bookstore Taichung

This modern, spacious Japanese chain store is probably one of the most attractive bookshops you’ll find anywhere. In addition to Japanese books and magazines, as well as Chinese and English adults’ and children’s books, it also sells daily-living necessities. In addition, customers can enjoy some relaxing dining and drinking with Wired Tokyo cafe’s famous Okinawa Doug’s Burger and some enticing desserts such as Mixed Fruits French Toast (NT$370) and the store’s specialty Floating Ice Cream Milk Tea (NT$220) available on the lower floor. A kid-friendly corner with cute miniature circular seats is available for children to look through books while their parents do their own book browsing, and a long wooden bench with reading lights is installed for customers to sit and flip through books before deciding on purchases. Looking out of the bay windows onto the greenery-decorated patio, dining and reading here are all pleasurable experiences. –By Judy Tan Lee Choo Translated by Anna Yang
