This New Tokyo Bookstore Charges a $13 Admission Fee
"Bunkitsu, a new bookstore in Tokyo's Minato Ward, charges a 1,500-yen entrance fee to combat Japan's failing bookstores and declining book sales. The store offers a unique experience with its sleek design, rare collection of 30,000 books and magazines, and additional features like a 90-seat café with unlimited free coffee and green tea. It focuses on art, design, and illustration books, encouraging customers to discover new titles. The store also occupies the site of the now-closed Aoyama Book Center."
