Majestic & Grand, Though Sadly Felt Unsafe Due to Homelessness 🏛️💔

This library is absolutely incredible! It's massive – with 10 full floors to explore 🌟📖. The third floor is specially designed for teens, while the first floor has a dedicated children’s room that I found absolutely perfect for young readers 👧🧒. The Red Room – or the red-themed floor – is truly impressive. Right from the entrance, you're greeted with stunning shades of red covering the walls and floors, creating a dramatic and inspiring atmosphere ❤️🎨. Make sure not to miss the spiral-shaped bookshelves – they're a unique architectural highlight! At the entrance, you can pick up a library exploration map that lists must-see collections on the back – super helpful for planning your visit 🗺️✨. On the 10th floor, you’ll feel like you’re reading in the sky ☁️💫! Natural light pours in through the skylights, creating a serene and uplifting space. There’s also a library shop on the first floor 🛍️. I highly recommend buying souvenirs here – your purchase helps support the library’s funding! That said, the one downside was the unsettling presence of many homeless individuals sleeping and eating inside. While I understand libraries are safe public spaces, the large number made it feel less secure. I believe the library could better manage visitor stays so that everyone – including families and tourists – can enjoy the space with peace of mind. #LibraryLove #UrbanExplorer #ArchitecturalGem #BookLoversParadise #PublicSpaceChallenge
