Bibliothèque Nationale de France

Bercy, Paris

📚"it does feel like the books are talking to you"
"I could have stayed here all day... just amazing"

Four glass towers shaped like open books rise from the Seine, guarding a sunken forest garden and millions of rare manuscripts. Come for the architecture, stay for the hush of the reading rooms and rotating exhibitions.
