Established in 1971 and located on Shaftesbury Avenue in London’s Chinatown, Guanghwa Bookshop is the UK’s only brick-and-mortar Chinese bookshop. For over 50 years, it has proudly served as a central literary and cultural landmark, bridging Eastern and Western cultures.

At Guanghwa, we offer an extensive collection of Chinese-language books on a wide range of topics, covering both Chinese and international subjects. Additionally, we stock English-language books focused specifically on China, including works on Chinese literature, history, philosophy, religion, art, social and cultural studies, medicine, martial arts and Qi Gong. Our collection also features children's books and Chinese language learning resources in various multimedia formats.

Our offerings extend beyond books. Guanghwa is also a destination for traditional Chinese art supplies, including brushes, calligraphy and painting papers, as well as unique cultural crafts. We proudly support artists and local businesses and offer traditional Chinese artwork mounting services, alongside custom seal carving.

Guanghwa Bookshop is a vibrant cultural hub. We regularly host book launches, author talks, mini book fairs, workshops, and courses on Chinese calligraphy and painting, making us a focal point for cultural exchange.

At Guanghwa, we are dedicated to celebrating Chinese culture and enriching our community. We warmly invite you to explore our collection and participate in our cultural events, becoming part of this ongoing journey.
