eslite BOOKSTORE “TIMES Vol.36” 

誠品松菸書店  時光36期



If there is gravity in the universe, then there is gravity between people, right.

Gravity, as explained by science,
guides the stars, causing them to attract and orbit each other.
The gravitational force that cannot be explained by science
guides us, so that you and I become one through fate, yearning for each other.


倘若宇宙間存在著萬有引力,那麼人與人之間便是萬有引力吧。

科學所可以解釋的引力,
引導了星體,使它們相互吸引、環繞彼此。
科學所不能解釋的引力,
引導了我們,使你我因緣和合、牽掛彼此。







eslite Bookstore: A Cultural Sanctuary

Established in 1989, eslite Bookstore derives its name from the ancient Greek word "élite," symbolizing the pursuit of excellence and the cultivation of a better society.

More than just a bookstore, eslite serves as a sanctuary for the soul. Centered on the core values of "Humanities, Art, Creativity, and Life," it transcends traditional boundaries by seamlessly integrating reading with diverse cultural exhibitions. With its unique spatial aesthetics—characterized by warm wooden flooring, ambient lighting, and an extensive literary collection—eslite offers a quiet spiritual haven for the busy urbanite.
From pioneering the "24-hour bookstore" model to its composite business approach featuring performances, galleries, creative commerce, and dining, eslite has become Taiwan's definitive cultural landmark. It stands as a pivotal force in promoting reading culture and lifestyle aesthetics across the global Chinese-speaking community.

International Recognition: eslite was named Asia's Best Bookstore by TIME Magazine and recognized by CNN as one of the World's Coolest Bookstores.

誠品書店:文化的安頓之所

誠品書店(eslite Bookstore)成立於 1989 年,其名源自古希臘文 "élite",意指「菁英」,象徵著對美好社會的追求與實踐。

誠品不僅是一間書店,更是一處安頓心靈的場所。以「人文、藝術、創意、生活」為核心價值,誠品打破了傳統書店的框架,將閱讀與多元文化展演結合。在其獨有的空間美學中——溫潤的木質地板、沈穩的燈光與豐富的藏書,它為繁忙的現代都市人提供了一座靜謐的精神避風港。

從首創「24小時不打烊」的閱讀模式,到結合展演、畫廊、文創與餐飲的複合式經營,誠品已成為台灣最具代表性的文化地標,更是全球華人社會中,推動閱讀文化與生活美學的重要推手。

國際肯定: 曾獲《時代雜誌》評選為「亞洲最佳書店」,並被 CNN 評為「全球最酷書店」之一。
