Compared with the old library, the New Birmingham Central Library, which has been built for a long time, is simply the external modern tall and the internal classical elegant style. Walking into it, I saw that each floor was a revolving floor and a classical bookshelf. There was a dazzling sense of stepping into the ladder of knowledge. There are also some good viewing platforms in the museum, which can see most of the view of Birmingham City Center. Recommended to the 9th floor, there is a very small viewing platform, as well as an antique Shakespeare house.

It's a library open to all people. If you don't lend it, you can read at will in the library. It's a kind of experience for people who love books.

I have lived in Birmingham for nearly a year. I remember that when I first came here, I talked with my local friends about Birmingham. Many local people would recommend this library. It's really good, and its design is very good (although its appearance is a little ugly). It was my first time to go to a foreign library. In addition to being good-looking, the biggest feeling was to be very comfortable. There is no quiet and suffocating feeling in domestic libraries. People here can talk in a low voice. If they are bored reading, they can go to the first floor to buy a cup of coffee or garden for a while. There are many tourists like me who come to visit, but whether they are tourists or readers, they enjoy the feeling of staying here. I think it's in our library. Even if the visitors are very quiet, they will be stared dead by the readers On its official website, you can find the exploration route guidance of the library, and there are plans for the design of the highlights of each layer. According to this route, you can visit the library in a very time-saving manner. It is worth mentioning that there are two outdoor leisure gardens on the third floor of the library (it seems that it is on the third floor, I can't remember clearly) and the top floor. The garden is average, but the top garden is a good place to take a panoramic view of Birmingham. The streets near the library are also very busy. If you come during Christmas, there is an open-air skating rink and ferris wheel in the square near the door (not as spectacular as the London Eye). The life of crooked nuts is boring. Local people like to skate here at Christmas. I understand that it's just like we like to go to temple fairs during the Spring Festival. There are many restaurants across the street from the library, which are not bad (compared with the average level of British food, of course).

Go to the library. As a one-day tour of Birmingham. Forget what time it opens, but it's not very early. The library is still very beautiful. Chinese books are underground. Not a lot. There are unknown love stories and four famous works. That's it. Students have always said, how can we put it together like that. But in any case, it's amazing. Yes, we just went to find the legendary Chinese books and saw them from the top floor to the underground. Ha ha ha ha There are two open platforms. Sky garden. It's also leisure.

It's a big library with a secret garden on the 7th floor. It's a good viewing platform. There is a Shakespeare's memorial room on the 9th floor. You can't miss it.

Known as the largest library in Europe, it has two platforms, and the urban landscape of Birmingham is not bad. Free access, but you need to apply for a card to borrow a book.
