Top Ten Tuesday: Bookish Places I Want to Visit

The text reads, “Top Ten Tuesday. www.thatartsyreadergirl.com.” Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Apologies to Susan @Bloggin’ ’bout Books, but I haven’t visited many exciting bookish places. My books generally come from the public library, and I simply do not have the budget to travel to other countries.

Sand sculpted into the image of an old man sitting at a desk and leaning over to read a book. He looks a little concerned with what he is reading. Unless you want to hear stories about me reading encyclopedias from the 1960s at my grandmother’s house when I was a child, I’ll have to tweak this topic a little in order to participate. 

Therefore, here are ten bookish places I’d like to visit that are either the settings for famous works or have beautiful libraries or festivals there:

1. The W.E.B. Du Bois Center Library in Ghana

2. The Library of Alexandria in Egypt (If it still existed, of course).

3. Prince Edward Island, Canada

4. The Jane Eyre trail, Peak District

5. The Ake Arts and Book Festival in Nigeria

6. Amsterdam

7. Kyoto

8. Cartagena

9. Buenos Aires

10. Chimurenga Library in South Africa
