5. One Way Street Library in Beijing

Many people might be familiar with the calendar by One Way Street Library, each black-and-white page having a quote from an author to represent a mood for the day. Many youths who love literature and art love the calendar.

I've been only there once to meet a Spanish author, but before that I had heard a lot of stories about that place, especially the one about how a staff member met many stars there, such as Zhou Xun.

When you go the bookstore, you will first see a whole wall of creepers and several street cats idling around. On the first floor are books and a café. The second floor is used to host activities. When you take enough spiritual food, you can feed the cats some food too.
