O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Ova zapanjujuća neogotička katedrala knjiga sadrži preko 150.000 predmeta, uključujući Prvi folio Shakespearea i originalne tekstove pjesama Beatlesa napisane rukom na salveti. Plafon King's Crossa visok 12 metara uzdiže se iznad 120.000 ručno oslikanih zlatnih pločica koje svjetlucaju poput srednjovjekovnog rukopisa.
Istaknuto: Uđite unutra i pogledajte gore: plafon čitaonice visok 12 metara prekriven je sa 120.000 ručno oslikanih zlatnih pločica, od kojih je svaku pojedinačno izradili marokanski majstori. Jedna pločica košta više od mjesečne stanarine većine ljudi, a soba je modelirana po uzoru na italijansku renesansnu biblioteku iz 15. stoljeća.
