Natural wood colors, warm-toned lighting, well-decorated tables and chairs and neat and orderly bookshelves: this is the No. 6 station in the center of the "E-Town·Book Belt".

The full name of the "E-Town·Book Belt" is the "E-Town Binhe Park and Tongming Lake Park-Book Belt", one of the key projects of the BDA in 2021. 

Running amidst the Liangshui River, the Tonghui Drainage Canal and the surrounding areas of Tongming Lake it is a BDA tourist route that integrates culture, art, technology, and leisure.

This small wooden house is only the first phase of the project; ten small wooden houses will later be built along the river one after another.

"I often bring my kid here to read books. The environment is soothing and quiet, with antique decoration; it's an ideal place for reading. When you get tired of studying, just go to the riverside and feel the breeze blowing," said Ms. Chen, who often reads books here.

The No. 6 station is located in Liangshuihe Park at the intersection of Xihuan South Road and Boxing 3rd Road. It is open from 10:00 to 20:00 and is closed every Thursday.
