Tips from the community
Situated in the ancient city of Yangzhou, the Zhongshuge (which translates to Bell Book Loft) is a concept piece that will have book lovers and modern design enthusiasts in raptures. It’s actually a bookstore, one with books shelved from floor to ceiling, which would be enough for the average bibliophile.

There’s more to do inside including equally stunning reading rooms and architectural gems.
