You go into a nice bookstore, find a book, and then sit down to start reading. Many people like this kind of feeling very much. But now online(线上) bookstores and e-books are popular(受欢迎). It's easy for you to buy books on dangdang.com or amazon.com. So traditional(传统的) bookstores have to make some changes(改变).
Now some traditional bookstores just sell one kind of books. For example, if you like watching movies, you don't want to miss the Popular Holdings in Shanghai. This bookstore has a lot of books about movies.
Some traditional bookstores are also places for people to make friends and enjoy(享受) life. The Eslite Bookstore in Taiwan doesn't only sell books. It also has clothes shops and cafes. You may also join in book reading clubs there, or talk with famous writers. Bart's Books in the US is a good place to enjoy the sun when reading books. It's an outdoor bookstore. When the store is closed(关门), people can still buy books. They just put money into the door's box. Sisyphe bookstore in Chongqing is also a nice place to meet friends. You can drink a cup of coffee when you read a book.
With these changes, more and more people like going to traditional bookstores in their free time. Going to bookstores becomes their way of living. If you visit a new place, why not find a good bookstore there and start a reading trip?
