How many people were sad when this bookstore in Chongqing closed?

I was really amazed by the bookstores in Chongqing! Have the bookstores in the mountain city become so advanced? 😭 When I saw the name "Blade Book Tavern", I was full of curiosity. "Blade" is a book I like very much, so I really want to see what a bookstore opened by a boss with the same frequency would be like. I didn’t expect to stay there for the whole day... Chongqing people’s spiritual refuge is so advanced that it combines books, wine, coffee, and canteens 😲 The amazing thing is that the adaptability is perfect! Really great design, I love it so much, it makes me cry😭 🤏There are too many details in the store worth mentioning "If life is hard, reading is the cure"... The original "Blade" Vintage book is posted on the entire wall... The book that has never been bought since the store opened is called "The Lonely Book"... Signed books, out-of-print books, special edition books counters... "Book lovers don't have to carry heavy loads on the road" Man-stamped posters... Niche but very artistic cultural and creative products... Almost every book has an unsealed version, so you can read it even if you don't buy it... The back of the unsealed books is posted with "Every book you read is worth cherishing, please put it back in its original place"... The height and comfort of each seat are very particular... The bookshelf arrangement design does not feel crowded but every space is well utilized... The selection of each book is an aesthetically pleasing version... ☕️As for drinks, the coffee is also delicious! I ordered a cup of Dirty, and the taste was really no less than that of a professional coffee shop! If you stay until night, you can have a special drink, the name of which is also very particular. I have never experienced the feeling of reading a book while being tipsy. Next time, I must experience it at night. It is so beautiful just thinking about it. 🍜Japanese late-night restaurant, a small Japanese restaurant hidden in a bookstore, serves meals all day from noon, super suitable for people‼ ️No communication is required and there is no waiter. After you scan the QR code to order, the waiter brings the food and then disappears into the kitchen. I ordered the hell ramen that everyone recommended. A big thumbs up 👍The boss really shouldn’t be too comprehensive. While feeding the brain, he also doesn’t forget to take care of the stomach’s feelings hahahaha😂 I love this bookstore so much, I fell in love with it at first sight! "Heaven should look like a library" has become concrete‼ ️For people who are as keen on collecting bookstores as I am, I highly recommend this one with tears in my eyes 🥹‼ ️ (The store is currently closed due to renewal of the original address, but I believe the owner will find a suitable place to meet again later [Tiptop])
