¿A qué amante de los libros no le gusta revisar los volúmenes que atesora un estante? El conocimiento que se almacena en una biblioteca es una maravilla. Entretenerse hojeando libros es una experiencia única, pero también lo es disfrutar de la belleza arquitectónica que desprenden estos lugares.

Hace un par de semanas pudimos ver las bibliotecas más bonitas del mundo capturadas por el objetivo del fotógrafo Franck Bohbot. La lista incluía desde la Biblioteca Nacional francesa a la Vallicelliana de Roma. Muchos lectores dejaron comentarios sobre lo espectaculares que eran sus bibliotecas locales, por lo que las distintas ediciones internacionales de The Huffington Post pidieron a sus seguidores que enviaran fotografías de las que consideraran más bonitas. Esta es una selección de las 16 más impresionantes:

Biblioteca pública de New York Public Library - Nueva York, Estados Unidos

If only the British Library was as nice as the New York Public Library! The libraries in the UK that I like as much as this are university libraries, so they lack the flair of inclusiveness that the NYPL has. Here, anyone of the general public can just come and read, and enter with or without a library card.

Biblioteca del Trinity College Library - Dublín, Irlanda

Trinity college library. Dublin. Ireland. The most beautiful library I've ever been in. It is the largest library in Ireland. The library is the permanent home to the Book of Kells. Two of the four volumes are on public display in this library. The 65-metre-long main chamber (The long room) was built between 1712 and 1732 and houses 200,000 of the library's oldest books. A library worth visiting for any lover of books. @instagram #vsco #allshots_ #travel #nature #books #library #instalike #inspireland_ #insta_ireland #ireland #discoverireland #featuremeinstagood #allshots_ #architecture #travelling #arch #madewithfaded #simplyadventure #GtaroundDublin #vscosnaps #vscoaward #huffpostgram #Ireland_Gram #hplibrary
