#Overseas travel Overseas travel Mexico City's ⭐️Vasconcelos Library⭐️ Biblioteca Vasconcelos is a wonderful library that was the motif for the movie Interstellar. It is a library made of iron and uses sunlight to brighten the interior. Although there is no separate lighting, sunlight enters the library well, so you can choose and read various books in the rest areas here and there. It is one of the world's great libraries, so if you visit Mexico City, I recommend stopping by. 🎯Eje 1 Nte.

A must-visit place with coffee when you go to Mexico City! There is a place in Mexico that will appeal to fans of the movie 'Interstellar'. 'Biblioteca Vasconcelos' is a public library located in the northern part of Mexico City, and is very famous for the zero-gravity bookshelf in the movie! Applause for the really cool architecture

Mexican food, a guitar-playing mustachioed man (wearing a wide straw hat), Aztec civilization, and other powerful and unique images! Those are the things that naturally come to mind when you think of Mexico, but while traveling, I discovered another charm of Mexico. Mexico still has its own unique character and traditional appearance everywhere, but on the other hand, it is modern and perhaps shows off a sophistication that was ahead of its time! The library above is said to have become famous as the Interstellar Library. When I actually saw it, my mouth dropped open at its size and beauty... While looking around the library, I thought that Mexico's future couldn't help but be bright. The will and opinions of countless Mexicans must have come together to build such a large and beautiful library, and I thought that the great will of existing Mexicans would be passed down to future generations through a semi-permanent building called a library. In this context, I think a library is a building that can show a country's cultural level and future. There are various attempts related to reading in Korea, such as Byeolmadang Library and Gwanghwamun Book Yard, and I think it's great. The last photo is the exterior of the museum, which I took because it was pretty. The interior of the museum is also pretty. The interior walls are all white, and you can walk up from the 1st floor to the 5th floor (I think it was the 6th floor.. I remember correctly..). This was my first time at an museum of this scale and structure, so it was really different. I think museums, like libraries, are important standards. Mexico is the city of art!!

#cdmx The Jose Vasconcelos Library in Buena Vista, Mexico City Books, books, and more books up to the 7th floor! It's overwhelming. Of course there are tourists, but there are also plenty of study spaces and sofas, and there were many locals studying, playing with their PCs, or relaxing on the sofas. The nearest station, Buena Vista, is quite a terminal station, so it's convenient as the national railway passes through it. I went there by BRT (local bus). There is also a shopping mall, so it's a great place to visit along with the nearby Santa Maria Park.
