4.5The National Library of Finland(252 reviews) - Beautiful library Thursday: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Points of Interest & Landmarks • Architectural Buildings • Libraries
You have to leave bags and coats in a locker room before you enter, which is located on the right after you enter the front door, there are lockers with keys provided for valuables, all free of charge. The library is very beautiful, we spent about an hour wandering around, taking photos, marvelling at the architecture, and looking at book titles. There are some rooms that are for readers only, and you should obviously respect that. Make sure you go upstairs if you can to experience it all from another angle.See more..
