Places in town
Shops, stations, restaurants and the other places a first walk through town passes.
Many place names are built from what happens there and a word for the kind of place: 店 a shop, 馆 a hall or house, 站 a stop or station. Once these are known, 书店, 茶馆 and 地铁站 explain themselves. Shops and restaurants are counted with 家, the same word as “home”.
