The State Library of Victoria

The State Library of Victoria is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Melbourne that tourists often visit because of its beautiful and unique architecture. It is the oldest public library in Australia, built in 1854, and the first public library in the world to be open to the public for free. The highlight here is the La Trobe Reading Room, a large hall with a reading table arranged in an 8-pointed star shape on the ground floor. There is also a gallery with permanent exhibitions, as well as various reading and borrowing rooms. #Australia #victoria #melbourne #thestatelibraryofvictoria #visitmelbourne
