If you spend half a day sightseeing in the city, you can recommend visiting the State Library of Adelaide State Library. Museums, art galleries and universities are all on the bustling North Terrace Street. The State Library has been selected as one of the 20 most beautiful libraries in the world by the famous international tourism media. You can see the overpass corridor on the second floor of the library and go right, that is, to the State Map. The wing of Mortlock Wing Moloch, as soon as it enters the cinema, the exquisite European-style classical architecture and gorgeous decoration, is planned and constructed with Adelaide in the 19th century. The 111M, 1PM and 2PM libraries from Monday to Saturday have free guides and can be booked at the library entrance service desk. Volunteers are enthusiastic about visiting the library and introducing South Australian culture. With the development of history, a free coffee roll was obtained after the tour guide, which can be exchanged in the attached cafe and enjoy leisure time for a while.

    The State Library is a large venue with a large collection of books. It is said to be the first few large museums in Australia. The history of books throughout Adelaide can be found here. The huge three-dimensional space also looks very unique.

    Walking into the library is like entering the Harry Potter world. The library has also become a place for Internet celebrities to punch in. I saw many friends come to take pictures, but there is still a lot of learning to keep quiet.

    South Australia State Library is the information collection center in South Australia, located in the North Taiji Cultural District, open seven days a week (except public holidays). The Library has 3 buildings: the award-winning contemporary Catherine Helen Spencer Wing with an iconic glass foyer, the Mottluck Wing 2 of the magnificent Victorian 19th century and the Society Building listed as 1861 Cultural Heritage. The huge stone pillars, golden walls, wrought iron retro railings, and transparent domes of glass, which seem to have come out of the Harry Potter School of Wizardry, make the South Australian State Library the “20 most beautiful libraries in the world.” The South Australian State Library was founded in 1834 by the South Australian Reading and Writing Association, which changed its name several times and changed its current name from 1967 to the South Australian State Library. The museum also houses the Royal Geographical Society of South Australia and the National Archives of Australia. Figure1-2: The Society Building built in 1861; Figure 3: The Mottlak Wing, built in 1884, named Jervois Wing in 1967, and named Mortlock Wing after 2003; Figure 4-7: Mott Leke Wing Library interior, light installation and 1914, Dent and Sons clock installation at the end of Figure 7 and 1887, at the time of 50 pounds, equivalent to today's $3,000, now need to be winded once a week, still accurate when walking; Figure 8-9: Catherine Helen Spencer Wing interior; Figure 10: Looking through the glass window of Katherine Helen Spencer Wing, the Mottlak Wing next to it.

    There's a pretty hidden place like this, so you have to go to the music condition.

    Roam Adelaide South Australian State Library and Art Gallery. Enjoy the wonderful things and appreciate the fun. Founded in 1834, the South Australian State Library (State Library of South Australia) is located in the heart of Adelaide, close to the University of Adelaide. The library has many newspapers, both ordinary and rare books, as well as a collection of children's books and a rich collection of non-book cultural relics.
