📍 Leakey's Bookshop

Established in 1979, Leakey's Bookshop is the largest second-hand bookstore in Scotland. It has over 100,000 selected books, including history, politics, travel, art, screenplays, etc. If you are a book lover, during your visit to Inverness, you might as well set aside a few hours to search for treasures, or if you can, find your favorite.

‍

One of the special features of the bookstore is the burning wood stove, which makes the whole atmosphere more retro. The bookstore manager sits at the reception desk next to the fireplace. He read quietly when no one asked, and enthusiastically guided us when customers inquired. Even if the bookstore doesn't have the book you want, you can leave your contact information and let the bookstore contact you when it finds a book that belongs to you.

The bookstore has two floors. The upper tier is mainly for tourism and art. In addition to books, the store also sells a small number of postcards and wall art. At the upper level, you can see the entire bookstore situation. Everyone is indulging in the world of reading, seeking knowledge in the category they love.

‍

The most difficult thing in a bookstore is to see these book covers that have been destroyed over time, and you can see that they have a long history. Many of our collections have an entire series preserved here, and you will definitely not find them in chain bookstores. There are also several sofa spaces in the bookstore for readers to read, so they can spend a quiet afternoon learning the wisdom of their ancestors in an environment surrounded by books.
