Jingguang Shangyue Bookstore is located in the central axis of Xi'an, only a 10-minute walk from the Xi'an city wall. The bookstore is far less rich in books than Qujiang Book City, and it is not as strict in the quality of books as Guanzhong Bookstore. However, Jingguang Shangyue is one of the few 24-hour bookstores that provides customers with a reading space that is difficult to replicate elsewhere, and can be called one of the best bookstores in Xi'an. At the same time, Jingguang Shangyue also has an unparalleled children's reading space, and many parents and customers make a special trip to visit.
The style of Jingguang Shangyue is clean and simple, and in terms of its layout, the most distinctive areas are hidden in the depths of the bookstore. For customers who are tired of shopping and strolling here, the advantages of Jingguang Shangyue are actually difficult to be easily noticed.
There is a large circular reading space in the front area, which greets customers as soon as they enter the store. Jingguang Shangyue places the most popular books here, and the book counter with four major themes of economic management, marketing, sociology and workplace is surrounded by a book counter. Inside, there is a soft and comfortable sofa seat. Next to the circular reading space is a special counter for picture albums, which is not rich in book categories, lacking rare books, and many books have obviously been dismantled and destroyed, which is quite old. Most shopping guides lack an understanding of the general situation of books in the store, so if you need to find books, it is recommended to go directly to the front desk to search.
Walking through the best-selling section of the front room, you begin to smell the aroma wafting from the coffee shop, and enter the deep part of the bookstore, which is the most famous space of the bookstore. In the dim light, the rows of bookshelves are arranged in a straight line, and there are plenty of chairs and stools on both sides of the shelves.
The books in the Jingshen area are mainly domestic and foreign literary books, as well as design books, foreign language reference books, legal monographs and historical books. The bookstore's book selection is biased and difficult to meet the needs of many customers, but the quiet reading space can make up for it. There is also a tatami room and a tea room in the deep area, and the tatami room is reserved for customers to enjoy reading in the most comfortable position, and students can study all night.
Many well-known bookstores in Xi'an have designed children's book areas, and set up commodity areas suitable for parents to consume next to the book area, making the bookstore a good place for parents and children. In this regard, Jingguang Shangyue can also stand out. The children's reading area in the store is unusually spacious, occupying almost one-third of the entire bookstore. A wide variety of children's literature, picture books and bilingual books are available. Among them, the reading and play space for children has reached the point of luxury, and there are also rich activities such as picture book lessons.
Jingguang Shangyue has a strong membership system, and there is a fee of 365 yuan for an annual membership card, and 1,000 yuan for a lifetime membership card. There are plenty of seats in the store, but all of them are for consumption, and members can use all the rest seats for free except for the tatami room. It should also be noted that after 22:00 every day, Jingguang Shangyue Bookstore only accepts members.
