Re: Why couldn't I find book stores in Hong Kong?

Hello, Banana-san and Naong-san,
I'm May.

I've been in Hong Kong for 3 years and a half.
I enjoyed Chinese food, busy market streets, Star Ferry,
doble-decker bus, and so on. (continue almost endlessly)

I'm happy to know that Banana-san enjoyd Hong Kong.
Your descrition is so lively that it reminds me of the exciting
days there.

〉〉I, Banana, wanted to buy a guide book of Hong Kong in Hong Kong.
〉〉I didn't prepare enjoying a visit for Hong Kong,
〉〉so I didn't have a information of sightseeing of Honk Kong.

〉Oh! I'm planning to visit Hong Kong on 31st Dec. to 3rd Jan,
〉and want to go to book stores.

〉〉I asked to my 同僚
〉〉'Please tell me the way to a book store near here.'

〉〉But he said
〉〉'There are few book stores in Hong Kong.'
〉〉'A Japanese 百貨店 has it. But I know only it.'

〉〉Yes, when I walked in main streets of Honk Kong,
〉〉I didn't find book stores.

〉Really?
〉When I visited Hong Kong about four years ago,
〉I bought a guide book, "香港街道地方指南 (Hong Kong Guidebook)",
〉at the book store somewhere in Kowloon.
〉I don't know exactly where it is.

〉(This is very useful even now.
〉 This map also has the route and the number of bus all over the Hong Kong.
〉 I'll buy the new version next month.)

〉〉Uuuuuum,
〉〉I didn't believe there were no book store.
〉〉I don't believe there are no book store.
〉〉If no book stores in Japan,
〉〉If I don't have a book to read,
〉〉I can't imagine that if.

〉So do I.
〉But I think there are some book stores there.
〉When I searched by Google for this trip, I found two stores.

〉1. 星光圖書中心 near 香港酒店 in Kowloon
〉2. 銅鑼灣圖書中心 near 百利保広場 in Hong Kong Island

〉But I don't know how many books they have.
〉I think they have English books, maybe.
〉I'll tell you after this trip.

Oh, Banana-san and Naong-san,
Don't be disappointed.
YES! There IS a nice bookshop in Hong Kong.

It's just across the Landmark Tower.
From the south-east corner of the Landmark Tower, cross the intersection diagonally. Enter the building at the south-east corner of the intersection, and go down to the basement.
Since the shop is not on the 1st Floor, it might not be easy to find it.

It's a big shop and you'll find good books for 多読.
I bought many English books there when I was in Hong Kong.
I hope the shop still has a good variety of books.

Nong-san, please enjoy your trip to Hong Kong.
Try Yamucha, and fantastic Chinese food!
And don't forget to enjoy the Holiday iluminations!

May
