With the operation philosophy of “preferred content, relaxed scene, pleasant social contact and cultural diversity”, the bookstore is full of urbanized scenes. Because of its resemblance to a cave, it is also known as the “cave bookstore”.
The bookstore integrates the local culture of Chengdu, the heroic and grand snow region culture and the lazy and leisurely Bashu culture, forming a specific artistic charm of being unchained but not rough, enthusiastic and warm.
The architectural style of the bookstore is retro and European, and the interior is industrial.
