中國最美圖書館火到國外，外媒紛紛為它打call！

Nobody likes to be watched while they're trying to read a book, but we're willing to make an exception if it means getting to visit this stunning new library in China, because as you can see below, the incredible structure has a giant spherical auditorium in the middle that looks just like a giant eye.

沒人喜歡讀書的時候被人盯著看，但是有個例外，中國新建了一座令人稱羨的圖書館，在這里讀書被人看到，應該不是一件厭事。新圖書館中央有個圓形大廳，仿佛一只巨眼。

Located in the Binhai Cultural District In Tianjin, the five-story library, which was designed by Dutch design firm MVRDV in collaboration with the Tianjin Urban Planning and Design Institute (TUPDI) and has since been dubbed “The Eye of Binhai”, covers 34,000 square metres and can hold up to 1.2 million books.

圖書館坐落在天津濱海文化區(qū)，總共五層，設計師來自德國公司MVRDV，天津城區(qū)建設局也參與了設計。新建圖書館又被稱為“濱海之眼”，面積達34,000平方米，藏書量為120萬冊。

But there's a catch: Its swirling bookshelves don't actually hold thousands of books. Look closer, and you'll notice that the shelves are printed with digital book images. About 200,000 real books are available in other rooms of the library, but the jaw-dropping main room is primarily intended for socialization and reading.

但是也有一個亮點。這些波浪形的書架并沒有容納上千本書籍。走進一點看，你就會注意到書架上面電子書籍的圖像。大約20萬書籍在圖書館里面的另外的房間中，但是這間令人印象深刻的主廳主要是要社交和閱讀的。

Taking just three years to complete, the library features a reading area on the ground floor, lounge areas in the middle sections and offices, meeting spaces, and computer/audio rooms at the top. We're not sure how much studying we'd get done though – we'd be far too busy marveling at the awesome architecture!

建造時長為三年。底層是閱讀區(qū)域，中間有休息區(qū)，頂層有辦公室、會議室、機房、聲控室。在這樣的宏偉建筑里能學到什么實在不敢保證，大概都花時間忙著參觀了吧。
