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.

The second place was taken by the city of Lyon in France, and the third place was taken by Reykjavik in Iceland. The fourth city where you can find fascinating novels, scientific literature, unique copies of historical books, etc. is the capital of Ireland, Dublin.

The rest of the ranking of cities where a visit to bookstores should be a must for book lovers is as follows:

5. Stockholm, Sweden

6. Ljubljana, Slovenia

7. Edinburgh, United Kingdom

8. Florence, Italy

9. Belfast, United Kingdom

10. Zurich, Switzerland
