DasReasonably sure Mastodon peeps like libraries and might like a peek at this wowzer I stepped into today.
Dave Dawkins (D. Harrigon)@SRDas But you didn't tell us the interesting part. WHERE IS IT?
@golgaloth it's in the AltText
@SRDas Alt text FTW!!
Yen π²π½π¨ππΊπΈπ¨π¦@golgaloth @SRDas Mexico D.F my library and favorite place, along El Museo de AntropologΓa and the Ciudad Universitaria (UNAM)
The Shaking Earth@SRDas This is fantastic but wow, that looks vertigo inducing, haha
Chloe G artist@SRDas Not good if youre wearing a skirt?

Alexander JanΓen@SRDas Oh gosh, this looks like the haunted house in the movie "13 Ghosts" ;-)

Stephen J Henstridge@SRDas I hope it's earthquake-proof

StarkRG@SRDas I'm assuming that creature in the middle is part of the magical defences, should the library come under attack by otherworldly forces.
Becky@SRDas please my good fellow, tag your blatant bibliophile pornography ;p
GreenSkyOverMe (Monika)@SRDas Shit I was in Mexico City three times / 9 weeks and didnβt go there
@GreenSkyOverMe I hope you can make there - worth it even for a short while (30 mins or so). There was also a small art exhibition there.
Next time!
Next time!
RichardB345@SRDas looks like a scene from Labyrinth... torturous and impossible... like an Escherian nightmare.
SuranKnowing just how much paper can weight,
I wouldn't feel safe having all that suspended from the roof
Daniel Reeders@SRDas gosh, the architects put a lot of faith in the sticking power of rivets and/or welds...

This makes me think of Hanging Gardens - of human knowledge.

It's amazing. From the balconies of the top level there are also some nice views of the city.
Winnie π³οΈβπ@SRDas it looks amazing but I wouldn't be able to use the innermost shelves π€·
DziadekThere used to be a guy on Twitter who posted threads of beautiful places. The most beautiful libraries was a real favourite.
Davip Prestnod@SRDas At first I was like wow, AI has really boosted it's game. Very nice layout.

π¨π¦ CowMan πͺπΊ πΊπ¦ π²π½@SRDas that looks super cool, but I dunno if I'd want to be on or under them stacks
Parag@SRDas Holy cow! How did I miss this on my trip there last year?
@astrovelo maybe next time! This place is amazing I want to come back so much! with family!. It was pouring by afternoon after lunch (Los Cucuyos), so I took the bus to get there.
The other place, not sure if I'll make it today - is the library at University City (the outside). Wanted to combine that with the Frida Kahlo museum but no tickets to that available

@SRDas We went to Frida Kahlo museum and the huge archeological museum. Also visited the pyramids at Teotihuacan. Still lots to cover in the next visit. Definitely want to visit the lake with axolotls. Will add that library to the list.
@astrovelo I only spent a little bit of time in the morning at the archeological museum - sooo much there! Definitely need to come back - with family. I'm treating this like a scouting/reconnaissance trip
Seth of the Fediverse@SRDas wow!!!!! π€©
unattributed πβοΈ@SRDas I would be terrified of one of those suspended book stacks falling on me...it would be especially bad in an earthquake.

Rob Vincent ποΈ@SRDas Where do they keep the books about managing acrophobia and vertigo?
Lee Hauser@Rob_T_Firefly @SRDas Top level, on the shelves closest to the center of the building.
Wilfried Klaebe@SRDas I'd love to roam that for some weeks at least...

@SRDas one of the few good things the Vicente Fox administration left and luckily has survived.
