Hauptbücherei

Main Library of the City of Vienna. Spectacular urban architecture. Books, dvds, cd-roms, internet-pcs - information, newspapers....
international flair, meeting point, pretty view from the staircase and the roof terrace.
One of the hot spots in town.

not really a bookstore, but there isn't any category that fits better. the library is a really nice place to be. you can read there, borrow books and dvds for almost nothing and also have a drink in the cafe on the top. the view from the "roof" is extraordinary. in the summer it is one of the "places to be" in vienna. i remember so much great evenenings with bottles of beer on the stairs.
