Xanadu in the hearts of literati
Su Yufeng photos
I always thought that Wuzhen had only small bridges and ancient streets with flowing water, but I didn't expect there was a hidden paradise in the deep alley-Mu Xin Art Museum.
On his deathbed, Mr. Mu Xin looked at the design scheme of the art museum and murmured, "Wind, water, a bridge." Now, the narrow and concise art museum stands by the water, responding to the poet's highly summarized words. In addition to displaying paintings, the Art Museum also has a library, which is a stepped library designed by designers Okamoto Bo and Bing Lin. It is located at the northern end of Mu Xin Art Museum and connects the first and second floors. Visitors can rest and sit on the wooden steps for a long time and look at the backyard of the art museum.

Mu Xin Art Museum was built in Tashi, and the faint hidden Chai Fei attracted curious passers-by in the dense forest. You can also come by boat and walk slowly along the boat. There is really a sense of beauty along the way in Mr. Mu Xin's poems. "Once upon a time, the sun changed slowly, and the mail was slow, so I only loved one person in my life."

Hangzhou Zhongshuge
Known as the most beautiful bookstore in China.
Speaking of clocks, perhaps many people will think of the "most beautiful bookstore" in Shanghai that attracted many people's attention for the first time. In fact, there are also branches in Hangzhou. Hangzhou Zhongshuge covers an area of 1000 meters, full of design sense and creativity, which can satisfy almost all your fantasies about bookstores.
More than 200 square meters of the ring screen reading room, surrounded by walls, are all filled with books, under the action of ceiling mirrors, as if leading to the highest place in the sky. At the same time, it is full of "natural" beauty. The "forest reading area" occupying a quarter of the bookstore consists of white bookcase columns. When you walk by, all the lights on the pillars will light up, as if you had stepped into a dream forest.
Clock is probably the best bookstore to keep children: the bookshelves such as merry-go-round, roller coaster, hot air balloon and pirate ship are all set in the imaginative children's library, just like an imaginary fairy tale world, secret and naive.

Hangzhou Mai Jia Ideality Valley
Reading is going home.
To outsiders, Mai Jia, the founder of Bookstore, is a writer and screenwriter. But in the ideal valley, Mai Jia is just the owner of the valley, waiting for readers to read in the valley. As the name implies, Mai Jia Ideal Valley is a public welfare literary complex of "reading only but not selling books", "free self-help coffee and tea" and "writing camp". There are more than 30,000 classic books of literature, history and philosophy collected by collectors, and it can also be said that it is a stronghold for writers and scholars to communicate.
Reading is going home, which was put by Mai Jia at the gate of Ideal Valley. Everyone who comes to study can feel at home. In order to keep the bookstore quiet and tidy, the whole Ideal Valley was carpeted. Before entering the door, everyone consciously put on slippers. Step by step, each step is piled with a thick stack of books. This is the best seat when there is no sofa to sit on.

The existence of Hangzhou Xiaofeng Bookstore has a relaxed sense of the market. From the beginning, it didn't deliberately live and didn't want to be bullied by trust. This is the growth history of the Hangzhou family. People who come in and out in the morning and evening can see the change of years and stand the ups and downs of life.

Xiaofeng Bookstore was born in 1996. For Hangzhou, it is the oldest independent bookstore. Just like today's Nanjing Pioneer, it is not only a bookstore, but also a cultural landmark of the city. People go to this bookstore not only to read books, but also to warm their cultural ideals and look for cultural oases in the city.

Xiaofeng Bookstore moved from Bao _ Road to Stadium Road, and then many small branches were born in the landscape of Hangzhou. They grew up with Hangzhou book lovers, so they are not lonely even if they are poor. Time passes in the bookstore, leaving some people's youth, youth and middle age in the bookshelves. To them, the bookstore lights are like a breeze.

Miscellaneous notes of Songyang Mountain in Lishui
Reading, drinking tea and listening to the rain.
Speaking of the small town of Songyang, from the teahouse in the cycling tea garden of Damushan to the old houses scattered in the ancient villages in the mountains, the word literature and art is inseparable. In the old street of Songyang in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, independent bookstores transformed from old houses also have the unique temperament of Songyang.
Miscellaneous stories in the mountains are not only bookstores, but also teahouses and grocery stores. As for bookstores, wayward owners only sell their favorite books: history, design, travel or art, and several sets of unpopular books, such as Bishan. On the wooden shelf of the grocery store, there are traditional ingredients that the shopkeeper has spent many years collecting from the corner of Songyang country. Celadon comes from Longquan, a neighboring county. Is a complete set of tea and wine utensils, simple in shape, moist as jade.
On rainy days, sitting indoors watching the wet ground of the world and listening to the dripping rain through the old-fashioned porch; On a sunny day, the sun climbed onto the table on the ground, in the house and around the roof of the old house. Spending a day in such a bookstore, time passes more slowly than usual.

Hangzhou Tonglu Xianfeng Yunxi Library
Originating from the mountains, returning to nature.
Pioneer Yunxi Library is the first 1 1 bookstore in pioneer bookstore. It is hidden at the foot of the mountain, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, surrounded by hazy poetry. As soon as I walked in, I felt a warm feeling in my heart.
It is transformed from two adjacent She folk houses, with yellow mud adobe walls, wooden windows and corn and red peppers hanging on the walls, which makes the bookstore less alienated and more intimate. According to reports, this 200-square-meter library has collected more than 4,000 varieties and nearly 20,000 books, including folk culture, geography, local literature, biography, poetry, photography and academy culture. What is even more touching is that the profits from the book sales in this bookstore are used to donate to the poor local She students.
Choose an open-air corner or climb the second floor. The coffee is fragrant and the mountains are beautiful. You can see the terraces step by step along the ravine, with green ripples. When the breeze blows, the crops between the ridges will flutter with the wind and turn up different ripples. Because of the pioneer cloud, this has become the slowest, quietest and most leisurely moment.
