Městská knihovna v Praze - Ústřední knihovna

Me ha encantado esta estructura que se llama IDIOM o torre de libros.Esta subiendo las escaleras justo cuando entras en la Biblioteca Municipal. La entrada es totalmente gratuita ya que es una biblioteca. Suele haber cola y mucha gente haciéndose fotos. Hay que intentar estar en silencio para no molestar.

It's one of the must visit places in Prague. If you are lucky you will not wait to take your pictures. The entrance to see it is totally free

The library in Prague is a haven for book lovers, offering a captivating blend of stunning architecture and a vast collection of literary treasures. Stepping inside, you'll be greeted by grand halls adorned with beautiful murals and rows of shelves brimming with books. It's a serene sanctuary that invites you to explore the wealth of knowledge and immerse yourself in the world of literature. The library is not only a treasure trove of books but also a cultural hub, hosting events and exhibitions that celebrate the power of words. A visit to this remarkable library is a must for anyone seeking inspiration and a deeper connection to the written word.

It is quite interesting that this building and library came up during my search for interesting Prag attractions. Make sure you see the book hole.

you have to queue for the book tower but it isn’t too long, and it’s worth it to have a look around everywhere because it’s gorgeous!

Quite disappointed with the behavior of some staff during my recent visit to the library. I encountered rudeness and unprofessionalism that left me feeling frustrated and disrespected. Particularly, I would like to highlight an incident where the toilet lady shouted at me in Czech and refused to communicate. Despite my attempts to communicate using Google Translate, the staff member continued to be unresponsive and dismissive, which was an extremely unpleasant experience. That fell far short of my expectations and left me feeling unwelcome and unsupported.

This is undoubtedly one of the best things to visit in Prague. But unfortunately I realised many tourists don’t put it in the priority list with many other attractions, but it should be, it is something very unique and mesmerising. I highly recommend this.

Most foreigners go there to see the book tower. It's a good piece of art to attract readers and book lovers. It consists of 8000 books, 5m hight, 2m diameter. Very close to the square of the Old town.

Everyone goes for the spiral pile of books. Yeah, looks nice but not big deal, people care too much about the ig pic, I think. Sometimes even has a line for it! And Prague is so nice so this cannot be overrated. It's worth a few minutes around.

The horrible long waiting queue might let people go without watching this unique piece of art, yet it really worth the wait specially for book lovers. A must visit when you are in Prague.
