This week I thought I would present everyone with some truly beautiful libraries from across the world. Just looking at these pictures makes me tingle all over. I am such a reading junkie that seeing this many books in such luxurious and architecturally magnificent buildings takes my breath away. *New Goal in Life: Visit an Awe Inspiring Library once in my life.
Abbey Library St. Gall in Saint Gallen - Switzerland
George Peabody Library - Baltimore, Maryland
Library at El Real Monasterio de El
Escorial - Madrid, Spain
Have any of you ever been to a library that literally took your breath away?
Wooow! They are huge! :) I've been to one in Oxford - Well, not exactly inside, because they wouldn't let me, but from the outside - Oh my God, I remember staring at it and keep repeating "I would die to study in this library" over and over again. :P So, yeah, I know the feeling :)
ReplyDeleteAww, so jealous that you got to see one from the outside. I would take that over my lack of worldly siteseeing any day.
DeleteUhhh... Jennifer. Wowowowowowowowowowooooooooow.
ReplyDeleteHehe! Yours and Lauren's were both about libraries! You genius girls! ♥
LOL. I know, I saw that. I love the library from Beauty and the Beast.
DeleteThey're all so big. I love the bottom one!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally into the middle one. I can't even imagine what kind of echo I could build up. :D
DeleteWow! They are amazing! I'm hopefully going to Spain on my honeymoon at the end of this year and that library just made my list of dream locations.
ReplyDeleteGREAT Blogspiration!
Those are some awesome libraries. To work in one of them would be epic.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I went to the library at Ephesus (Selcuk, Turkey) and THAT literally took my breath away! I mean, there's not much left now but it's still well preserved. I can't even imagine what it would have looked like thousands of years ago. It was gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these pictures!! The George Peabody Library is kinda doing it for me at the moment!!
OMG, so jealous. I want to see a cool library like that.
DeleteI have never seen an awesome library like these. I am kind of drooling over the one in Madrid.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so beautiful but my Fav is Switzerland.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I tagged you in a post!
