China Bookstore was established on November 4, 1952, with its main store located at No. 57, Liulichang West Street, Xuanwu District, Beijing. Branches are distributed along major commercial streets in districts such as Xuanwu, Xicheng, Dongcheng, Chaoyang, Chongwen, Haidian, and Fengtai.
The logo of China Bookstore is composed of two ancient Chinese thread-bound books. The two books overlap at the mouth to form five parallel lines, and the book bodies intersect at a 45-degree angle, creating three distinct visual effects: both books as a flat pattern; the upper book as a three-dimensional, and the lower book as a flat pattern; and the lower book as a three-dimensional, with the upper book as a flat pattern. The composition of Chinese thread-bound ancient books indicates that China Bookstore is a specialized store for ancient and old books; the five parallel lines represent the 5,000-year history of the Chinese civilization; the intersecting books symbolize that China Bookstore plays a pivotal role in the collection and exchange of books.
