Library@Orchard

Well,if you have never been to a decent library, i shall recommend here to visit library which located in Orchard,Singapore. It's very very comfortable, beautiful, wonderful and not to mentioned cool as well (cold too). The first time when i visited here, i was actually amused to see the environment and the condition here.It's perfect for people who enjoy reading and spending time in library.And i dare to say that it's the best i have ever seen.I am really surprise that the Singapore government actually invest in lots of money in setting public library to people.It shows that how much the politicians here emphazise on knowledge,on books as one can definitely see how much they have spent in founding the library in Orchard.They are magnificent.


I sort of ''fall in love'' with this place after my first visit. There are lots of books here, magazines,newspapers , manga, comic books, audio books and etc. Of course with all those books, you will think the space will be very limited.But you will be surprise that there are lots of free spaces here for people to sit, read and enjoy the pleasure of reading. Not only large spacing, but the library itself is well-designed , the lightning, the arrangement of books, the book shelfs and so on. They also have a cafe inside the library , where there are round tables and seats, for people to sit down and read, and they can order drinks or food from the shop there.It's just amazing,as it's too comfortable. In addition, they have set the area inside library as wireless hotspot, where one can get access to the internet for free. All you need to do is just to sign up,and then you are able to roam freely in the internet for hours. The management is so considerate that they actually have the sockets for electricity supply for people who are using laptop and planning to stay there very long.Of course, again, it's free of charge.Wonderful,isn't it?

Therefore, ever since my first visit, i have been frequently coming to this library due to all the reasons above after my work or when i am off. It's reallya good place for me to spend my day here, rather than staying at home, doing nothing. I can read here, enjoy free air-condition , free electrical supply for my laptop, free wireless, and etc. It's really great, and i am so glad that i was brought to this place.I can assure that it's one of the best things one can find in Singapore.
