Visitar la biblioteca es una experiencia recomendable primero porque es gratis algo raro en la cuidad y segundo por su interior. Se puede recorrer la sala de lectura aunque solo una parte y en horarios restringidos, la misma es bastante linda muy de película. Luego en la planta baja tiene un museo donde se encuentran varios libros de ediciones antiguas o de temas particulares además de otros objetos donde se destaca el peluche winnie the poh con sus amigos que inspiro el libro.

I'd move to NYC just so I could get a library card.

What a delight. But skip the coffee shop. Probably the rudest barista I’ve encountered anywhere. Outbursts and awkward behavior. Coffee was not good either.

Cool to stop by and take pictures. The branch most people would use for an actual library is the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library across the street. Worth a visit if you are in the city!

Ugh I wish I could have spent more time here. We were luck to be the last wave to be available to enter before it was close thst night. It is a beautiful building full of details and it's just huge. The view it's amazing, I just remember the day after tomorrow. Big fan. I would recommend this place, it is a must to go and check it out at least.

The New York Public Library feels like a palace built for books. Its grand stone steps and tall columns make it look like a temple of knowledge. Inside, the Rose Main Reading Room stretches endlessly with long wooden tables, golden lamps, and a high painted ceiling that looks like a soft sky full of clouds. I sat quietly reading while the room filled with the gentle sound of turning pages. There’s a peaceful weight to the air, as if the wisdom of every book sits quietly nearby. Even if you’re not here to study, the architecture alone is worth the visit. The marble floors, carved railings, and detailed doorways show the building’s elegant past. Downstairs, exhibits show rare manuscripts, maps, and historical items that make you appreciate how much the library protects. The famous lion statues outside, Patience and Fortitude, stand proudly at the entrance, welcoming everyone. Visiting the library feels like stepping into a space where time slows down. It’s calm, inspiring, and full of stories waiting to be read. For anyone exploring New York, this place offers a beautiful break from the city’s fast rhythm.

The New York Public Library offers a welcome respite from the city’s relentless energy. This iconic Beaux-Arts landmark is impeccably maintained, with grand reading rooms and marble halls that inspire quiet contemplation. Currently on display are the original Winnie-the-Pooh stuffed animals that inspired A.A. Milne’s beloved stories, alongside historical treasures like an original copy of the Bill of Rights. It’s remarkable to see these cultural artifacts up close, from childhood nostalgia to founding documents. A wonderful place to visit, and it’s free!
