With walls that could tell a million tales and architecture that could make even the harshest of critics swoon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Here are the top 10 most enchanting libraries near Lisbon that you simply <i>must<\/i> pay visit to while in town. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">1.

Why not. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Mafra Palace is enchanting enough on its own without the addition of a world-class library between its walls. Located just outside of Lisbon, Mafra is a great spot to take a day trip out of the city for a few hours. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">To put it bluntly; Mafra National Palace is absolutely massive. In fact, it is the largest monument in the entire country and a pristine, preserved example of Portuguese baroque design.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15200\" style=\"width: 1060px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15200\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549277512-ef10af0d894c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1050\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549277512-ef10af0d894c.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549277512-ef10af0d894c-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549277512-ef10af0d894c-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549277512-ef10af0d894c-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549277512-ef10af0d894c-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1050px) 100vw, 1050px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15200\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mafra National Palace Library &#8211; by Diogo Nunes &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/E9aiv5Q7dW8\">Unsplash<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Palace\u2019s library, dating back to 1771, houses a collection of over 36,000 books. Amongst them are many rarities; such as preserved prints from the year 1500 and all of the forbidden works of the eras long before. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The library space itself is somewhat of a marvel. \u201cEnchanting\u201d is probably putting it mildly; the white and cream woodwork bouncing off of the flesh-toned leather backs is rather spell bounding. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Rumor has it that it takes an army to keep all of these books in pristine condition\u2026 an army of bats that is. By night, hundreds of bats are released into the library wherein they eat the insects thats seek to eat through the books. During the day they live in boxes elsewhere in the palace grounds.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15201\" style=\"width: 977px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15201\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15201\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549895058-36748fa6c6a7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"967\" height=\"725\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549895058-36748fa6c6a7.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549895058-36748fa6c6a7-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549895058-36748fa6c6a7-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/photo-1549895058-36748fa6c6a7-816x612.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 967px) 100vw, 967px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15201\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mafra National Palace Interior &#8211; by Diogo Nunes &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/7eCcYQ-zOpc\">Unsplash<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Bats or not, the Mafra Palace Library is pure magic from the marble floors to the hand carved ceilings. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you ever want to feel immersed in a culture and history so foreign from what you\u2019ve been accustomed to thus far, head over to the Mafra library and let it slowly entwine into each of your senses. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">2.

Ironically, the wood used within the Bilioteca Joanina was actually brought in from Brazil and crafted by an Italian! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The library holds a collection of over 250,000 books dating back between the 15th and 19th centuries in Europe. While the collection is impressive, my favorite thing about the Bilioteca Joanina must be the painted ceilings and the utter whimsey of the scenarios that they depict. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It seems that the Mafra library knew what they were doing when they let the bats out by night. Bilioteca Joanina does the same, and these bats work through the darkness chomping on any critter that poses threat to the ancient bound works. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Note that there is a \u20ac7 entrance fee for this library. It is open every day of the week and well worth it, I promise.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15205\" style=\"width: 988px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15205\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15205\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/1357924000_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"978\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/1357924000_3.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/1357924000_3-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/1357924000_3-768x393.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/1357924000_3-816x417.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 978px) 100vw, 978px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15205\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Biblioteca Joanina &#8211; by Biblioteca Joanina &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/visit.uc.pt\/en\/library\/\">Sourced from their website<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<h4>4.
