Fatos rápidos: The library holds over 30,000 rare manuscripts, prints, and artworks from Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Visitors can see a 9th-century Quran written in gold ink, a stunning highlight of the collection.

Destaques: The library showcases an elaborate 11th-century Japanese scroll depicting a famous battle scene with intricate brushwork. You can encounter illuminated manuscripts up close, including a 13th-century Armenian gospel with vibrant colors that look almost new.
