The world's best bookstores.
I'm skeptical about the one in China--how can it be, with so much censorship there? The only one on the list I've been to is City Lights, and I'm not sure I'd place that at the top.
In DC, the obvious answers are Politics & Prose and Kramerbooks. Borders and Barnes & Noble are usually the default choices for books, but at least they provide a brick and mortar choice. Nothing compares to flipping through a book and reading a few pages, scanning it to see if you want to buy it. I have three to read: finishing up Chernow's fantastic Washington bio, George W. Bush's memoir Decision Points, and HW Brand's book on the gilded age. Fun!
