Nakanoshima Children's Book Forest
Upon entering the Forest of Children's Books in Osaka's Nakanoshima, the library staff kindly provide some tips for visiting ๐ฒ๐: ๐บ๐ No photos near the railings on the second and third floors to prevent cameras or phones from falling and causing injuries. No tripods or fill lights allowed. Photography is for personal use only, not for commercial purposes. ๐บ๐ Avoid taking photos of other visitors. Photos are permitted in the open areas, which is very considerate! ๐ To the left is the souvenir shop, where I surprisingly spent over a thousand RMB on souvenirs ๐๏ธ. ๐บ๐ You can even buy books signed by Tadao Ando himself! I asked the staff if the signatures were printed, and they assured me, "No, no, no, these are real, truly real!" I bought three and compared themโeach signature is indeed unique. ๐ฒ I didn't expect that my child would want to stay until closing time in the morning and still want to come back in the afternoon. There are no readers who don't love books; there are only libraries that lack good design. ๐ #Osaka #Nakanoshima #LibraryLove #Bookworms ๐บ๐
