A must-visit place for all book lovers, the Strand is a legendary bookstore opened in 1927 and run now by the second and third generation of the family. 2.5 millions of books await behind the doors of the bookstore, and they range from new items to vintage treasures and much loved used books. The Strand declares that all book lovers are welcome. We’d say that even if you’re an e-book fan, you should drop in. Who knows, you may find a hidden gem or even fall in love with books all over again.
