Biblioteca Joanina
Best time to visit
Jutarnji sati su najbolji da izbjegnete gužve i da bolje osjetite mir unutar biblioteke. Posjeta u jesen može biti ugodnija zbog manjeg broja turista.
Budget tips
Ulaznica košta oko 6 eura. Postoje popusti za studente i penzionere, a besplatan ulaz je dostupan prvog nedjeljnog dana u mjesecu.

About
Quick facts: This library holds about 70,000 rare books from various periods. The commitment to preserving the books encourages the use of special techniques to protect against moisture and pests.
Highlights: The interior is adorned with golden decorations, creating a luxurious atmosphere preserved by a colony of bats that protect the books from insects. This unusual cooperation with bats makes the space unique in the world of libraries.
Insider tips
- Obujte udobnu obuću jer pod je od mermera i može biti hladan.
- Ne zaboravite da isključite telefon i izbjegavate glasne razgovore kako biste sačuvali tišinu.
- Fotografisanje je dozvoljeno samo bez blica, pa planirajte snimanje pažljivo.
- Posjetite rano ujutru da izbjegnete gužve i dobijete bolje mesto za razgledanje.
