It is recommended to go between 4 and 5 pm, so that you can enjoy quiet reading time and admire the beautiful sunset in the evening. 🌟Visit Highlights The Yundong Library is made of a single piece of cast concrete and is shaped like a multi-dimensional space-time tunnel. It was rated by The Times as "one of the most anticipated buildings in the world to be completed in 2021." There are tens of thousands of books in the library. The reading area has seats of different shapes. The stepped reading area has a great view, and the children's reading area on the second floor is also very distinctive. In addition to reading, it is very pleasant to look at the sea through the large and small holes in the library, or go to the outdoor platform to feel the sea breeze. 📷Photography tips 1. Appearance of the library: You can take a panoramic photo of the library from the Century Bridge. The white building is matched with the blue sky and sea, and the picture is beautiful. 2. Outdoor cave: Take silhouette photos at sunset to create a great atmosphere. 3. Indoor space: The light and shadow coming through the cloud hole are amazing. Sitting in the reading area and reading with your head down, any random shot will be very photogenic. ❗Notes 1. You are not allowed to bring cameras, drinks, food, study materials or your own books into the library. 2. You must wear shoe covers when entering the museum. You are not allowed to wear high heels, otherwise it will be inconvenient to walk and may damage the floor. 3.
