Dymocks

With nine locations across Hong Kong including stores on Lantau Island and in the New Territories, Dymocks is one of Hong Kong’s leading chains. It can be relied upon to check all of the boxes: a solid array of new releases—both international and regional – is augmented by offerings across key categories including the usual suspects (Travel, Cookery, Business) as well as Motivation, Spirituality, and even deeper intra-category cuts like “Food Writing by Chefs A-Z”. And unlike some other chains, Dymocks makes space for high-end, large-format books, carrying the niche publishers you know and love: Abrams, Gibbs and Smith, Phaidon, Prestel, Rizzoli, Stewart, Tabori and Chang, Taschen, Thames and Hudson… the list goes on. A thorough and welcoming Children’s section can be found alongside the usual assortment of gifts and knick-knacks with one welcome twist: cards by local Hong Kong artisans, proving that this chain is down-to-earth.
