Sydney | Don't Miss This Hidden Gem on Your City Walk

City walks are a must-do in Sydney, and the Hyde Park area is usually the first choice. Hyde Park, the Anzac War Memorial, St Mary's Cathedral, the Royal Botanic Garden, the Art Gallery of NSW… I highly recommend adding this to your list: the State Library of New South Wales. It's one of Sydney's cultural landmarks, founded in 1826, with a blend of classical and modern architecture. The library boasts a rich collection of books and elegant decor. From the soaring dome to the exquisite stained glass, every corner exudes a rich sense of history. It's not just a great place to read, but also a great place to admire centuries-old architecture. The reading room on the first floor is truly captivating, with its antique, palace-like atmosphere and vast collection of books that instantly put you at ease. In addition to the extensive collection of books, there are also special exhibitions that are free to enjoy👏. I saw two sizable special exhibitions on the day I went, one of which was about Shakespeare, which I loved😍.
