Stop making noise! This is the most beautiful bookstore in the world.

selexyzdominicanen bookstore It was named the most beautiful bookstore in the world by The Guardian in the UK, and is also known as the "Heavenly Bookstore" among tourists. This bookstore located in the small town of Maastricht in the Netherlands was converted from a 13th-century church in 2006. Some people say that churches and bookstores are a natural pair, because you can look up and see the faded remnants of murals on the ceiling from 700 years ago. Bestsellers in the bookstore are placed on the lower shelves, while academic and profound books are displayed closer to "heaven". If you are wandering in the Netherlands or some other country in Europe, don't miss it.
