This disc-shaped building full of futuristic atmosphere is a globally renowned reading place and has prepared more than 2,000 seats for readers
The entire building is covered with various languages from around the world to reflect the library’s multicultural traditions and spirit
There are 8 million books collected here
The traditional library tour starts from the hall, where there are multilingual guides (English, French, Italian and Spanish)
Here it is divided into four fixed museums with themes of antiques, manuscripts, former Egyptian president Sadat, and the history of science
An important feature of the library is the ‘CULTURAMA’, an interactive display of Egyptian cultural traditions: Nine huge computer screens form a semicircle and show people panoramas of wars or history
The interactivity of the screens ensures that the speaker can explore this 5,000-year history, and when he clicks on specific content or major events, people can better understand the specific situation
Opening hours: Open from 10:00 to 19:00 from Monday to Thursday and Sunday throughout the year; Open from 10:00 to 14:00 on Saturday throughout the year
