Famous for: The old 'city of books' and art supplies
A 1980s block stuffed with second-hand bookshops, art-supply stores, calligraphy brushes and design books. Gloriously un-renovated.
💡 Look for the design bookshop on the upper floors, then browse the used-book stalls. Shops keep their own hours; go after noon.
