British Library at St Pancras

यात्रा का सर्वोत्तम समय

Weekday mornings are wonderfully quiet, with soft light streaming through the stained glass. Winter afternoons feel especially cozy as the golden ceiling glows warmly under dimmed lights.

बजट सुझाव

Entry is completely free for everyone, no ticket required. Special exhibitions sometimes charge a small fee, but the main reading rooms and the breathtaking staircase are always open at no cost.

के लिए अनुशंसित

के बारे में

त्वरित तथ्य: यह आश्चर्यजनक नियो-गॉथिक पुस्तकों का गिरजाघर 150,000 से अधिक वस्तुओं का घर है, जिसमें एक शेक्सपियर फर्स्ट फोलियो और एक नैपकिन पर हस्तलिखित मूल बीटल्स गीत शामिल हैं। 12 मीटर ऊँची किंग्स क्रॉस छत 120,000 हाथ से पेंट किए गए सुनहरे टाइलों के ऊपर उड़ती है जो एक मध्ययुगीन पांडुलिपि की तरह चमकते हैं।

मुख्य आकर्षण: अंदर कदम रखें और ऊपर देखें: 12 मीटर का रीडिंग रूम की छत 120,000 हाथ से पेंट किए गए सुनहरे टाइलों से ढकी हुई है, जिनमें से प्रत्येक मोरक्कन कारीगरों द्वारा अलग से तैयार की गई है। एक अकेला टाइल अधिकांश लोगों के मासिक किराए से अधिक खर्च करता है, और कमरे को 15वीं शताब्दी के इतालवी पुनर्जागरण पुस्तकालय के बाद तैयार किया गया था।

अंदरूनी सुझाव

The quiet reading rooms on the upper floor are open to anyone with a free visitor pass just bring photo ID.
Photography is allowed in the main staircase and lobby, but flash is forbidden near the rare book displays.
Visit the small exhibition space on the lower level to see rotating displays of original manuscripts and letters.
Arrive 15 minutes before opening to watch the doors swing open and see the hall nearly empty.
