Tour description
We will embark on a 2-hour tour during which we will visit the most iconic bookstores in the city, from the oldest, which is the Ávila bookstore, to the most modern and visited by many tourists each year, the Ateneo Grand Splendid.
Each bookstore comes with an interesting story, and in most of them, very important people have passed through.
It is a great opportunity to appreciate their heritage value, as well as to enjoy the smell of paper upon entering.
Along the way, you will be surprised by rarely seen places or little-told anecdotes. It will be a learning experience in history and culture, as we will pass through places that represent us culturally, such as the Obelisk and important avenues.
