National Library

Got a day off from lessons due to NTU Flagday, so took the chance to check out the newly opened central library with Mum. Quite impressed by the huge selections located at the reference levels. Caught two exhibitions of photography works and developments in Singapore. The famous Singaporean calligrapher, Chen Rui Xian was being interviewed by a Chinese reporter at the rare collections section. The nice view from the higher levels left a deep impression. However, the new, taller building lacks a sense of cosiness as compared to the now-demolised Stamford Road central library.
