Most serene experience that I’ve had in a while. Felt amazing to be there amongst the best books and pages in history. It’s a surreal experience indeed to be there and bask in the beauty of the place. The rooftop is beautiful.

Most serene experience that I’ve had in a while. Felt amazing to be there amongst the best books and pages in history. It’s a surreal experience indeed to be there and bask in the beauty of the place. The rooftop is beautiful.
Beautifully crafted with many floors to explore, and also holds different exhibitions from time to time. Great location with transportation right in front and perfect place for studying with great resources.
A big library in Birmingham. A very nice place and very good view. The location is very convenient and recommend to visit.
my favourite library in the UK outside and inside of the building there is plenty to look at and take in, escalators are in use on the inside and there is a place to get food and drinks from attached to the library. community learning projects also happen here. Great space.
The Birmingham Library in Century Square resembles a giant three-storey gift box, the new landmark of Birmingham City and by far the largest public library in the UK and Europe. Visitors are free to enter, and the shape inside is very modern and novel, completely different from the traditional library. There are many restaurants and bars on the edge of the Brindley Canal District, and many bar cruises on the river, and it is a good choice to enjoy the city while drinking coffee on board.
