The stereotypical idea that book lovers prefer reading in a comfortable chair to travelling may be fundamentally wrong. In fact, fans of quality literature often look for copies that are not available in their cities or online.

For them, it's like collecting. For such people who want to build a unique home library, Holidu and Spain-Holiday have created a rating of the top places with a rich literary heritage, Irish Central writes.

The absolute leader is Stuttgart, Germany. Here you can find a huge number of atmospheric bookstores with copies for every taste.

5. Stockholm, Sweden

6. Ljubljana, Slovenia

7. Edinburgh, United Kingdom

8. Florence, Italy

9. Belfast, United Kingdom
