It is said that if you want to know the history of a city, you can visit the museum; but if you want to understand the cultural heritage and humanistic feelings of a city, the most direct way is to go to its library.  The Victoria State Library is one of the ten most beautiful libraries in the world. It is one of the largest libraries in the world and is high in value. It has a long history and has been built in the same period as the University of Melbourne. It has been around for more than 160 years and is one of the oldest libraries in Australia, with a collection of over 2 million books.  As a public building built at the end of the 19th century, the architecture of the Victorian State Library combines ancient Greek architecture with a Renaissance style, with distinctive characteristics of the times, coupled with the constantly renovated houses and sculptures that form a unique Library complex.
