Quantum topological photonics is a new research field bridging the two different areas of quantum optics and topological photonics. Combining the advantages of topological protection and topology degree of freedom with quantum information processing, novel physical laws and effects could be expected, which improves the process of fundamental research and practical applications of both quantum optics and topological photonics. The review by Xiaoyong Hu, Yulan Fu, Cuicui Lu and co‐workers (article number 2001739) provides a detailed introduction to quantum topological photonics, including basic concepts, experimental implementation and research direction, which will surely accelerate the research and development of this field.
