With the motto ‘reading changes you; you change the world’, the Civilian Mobile Library is an unique place where visitors are allowed to pick up a book for free. The idea behind this is that everyone can help themselves to a book, and when they finish with it pass it on to someone else. Tucked away in a little hutong near Yonghegong Lama Temple, the Civilian Mobile Library has a charming location that attracts both locals and foreigners. The majority of the books are Chinese with a steadily growing English collection.
