Orange Spiral Staircase

The most eye-catching feature inside Adam bookstore is this large orange spiral staircase.

Its smooth and elegant curved design contrasts sharply with the fair-faced concrete architecture and has become the bookstore's most iconic photo spot. Many travelers stop here to take pictures.

The second floor also features large floor-to-ceiling windows that perfectly frame the mountain greenery of Yuchi Township.

Sitting by the window with a cup of coffee and a favorite book, surrounded by lush greenery and betel nut tree views, naturally slows the pace and allows one to enjoy leisurely moments.

The other side of the second floor is arranged as a minimalist book display and reading area, highlighting the charm of the books themselves.

The same space also houses an impressive Mazinger Z-themed display wall, showcasing a large collection of Japanese alloy robot models—from classic characters to limited editions. The standout piece is the large Mazinger Z model on the right. Both robot fans and family travelers will stop to admire it.

Another must-see feature of the book display area is the conical skylight in the ceiling. This large funnel-shaped fair-faced concrete dome brings natural light into the interior.

Throughout the day, sunlight casts circular light patterns on the gray concrete floor, creating a natural play of light and shadow that is also one of the venue's most iconic photo spots.

This Orange Ice Americano combines orange juice, espresso, and honey in a shaker and is served in a wine glass.

The first sip delivers coffee aroma, followed by refreshing natural citrus notes. The balanced sweet-tart ratio makes it perfect for hot weather. Shaken preparation creates a fine, dense foam on top, garnished with dried orange slices and fresh mint leaves—not only delicious but visually appealing.

A flaky croissant filled with ham, cheese, and fresh greens, served with a crisp salad, boiled egg, and special sauce. The portion is just right for brunch. The fresh greens are refreshing and crunchy, while the croissant is crisp on the outside and soft inside—simple yet satisfying.
