Biblioteca Vasconcelos

Biblioteca Vasconcelos is a stunning modern architectural masterpiece featuring five stories of floating bookshelves in a vast, light-filled space. Housing over 580,000 books and a hanging whale skeleton sculpture by Gabriel Orozco, it's often called 'the mega-library'. A photographer's dream.
