The city of Jimbocho is the biggest book town in Japan. And it is said it is one of the biggest towns all over the world. Although the deep slump in the publishing industry hits this country, many bookstores kept doing business in this area.

During walking around, I found a bicycle in front of a bookstore. There was a heap of book on its luggage carrier. The owner seemed to snatch up the book in this town. I thought the stores could keep the stable condition as long as there were bookworms like the owner.
