The Worlds' Best Bookshops There's nothing like being surrounded by books,wherever you are.Here are the finest oases of literature that travelers can bring you.
 Daikanyama T-site | Tokyo
 It is well worth visiting even if just to admire the building's beautiful,crisscrossed architecture.Once you've had your fill of wandering three floors' worth of bookshelves,there's the bar,the coffee shop,or even the video rental space to give you more reason to stay just that little bit longer.Grab a book,order a beer and dive into its pages.I could have stayed hours here.
 City Lights | San Francisco
 The three-storey establishment publishes and sells titles in poetry,fiction,translation,politics,history and the arts.It hosts events and readings and runs a non-profit of the same name that aims to promote diversity of voices and ideas in ljye.aierature.It's opposite Vesuvio,a bar frequented by Kerouac and other Beat-generation writers and artists.
 Shakespeare and Company | Paris
 I made a special trip to the Left Bank for this one when I was in Paris.It has two floors packed with English-language texts,and I was particularly struck by any spare wall space devoted to notes from visitors-heartfelt messages to a loved one,dedications to the shop itself,or a quote from a favourite author or philosopher.
 Hutatma Chowk | Mumbai
 A few years ago I visited India,investigating Rudyard Kipling's connections with the country.I spotted a cheap copy of The Jungle Book on one of the tarp-covered book stalls at Hutatma Chowk(Martyrs' Square).The booksellers here are like amateur librarians,able to lay their hands on almost any title you ask for.To me,those well-thumbed (翻舊了的)books spoke volumes about the changes of Mumbai's readers in the 150 years since the city gave us Kipling.

    Ecuador
       Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways,and as a result has become a popular American getaway.They even use the U.S.Dollar for their currency.In this country,it's cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on a budget in the U.S.You can even buy a building for around ﹩50,000 and hire someone to look after it while you're away.

    Vietnam
       Vietnam has also become a popular tourist destination in recent years.There are many million-dollar luxury homes by the beach,but you can find a modest flat or a small home for around ﹩25,000 to ﹩50,000 if you search in the right areas.
