Livraria Simão

It is interesting book store for sure. The owners made image of it for which many people are willing to wait in line and pay 5 euro entrance. Ok, you can use the money as credit to purchase a book but I did not see anyone buying anything. Maybe because most the books are in Portuguese and the once in English not so many nor interesting. Sunday afternoon there was no line so I managed to enter right away and to take few photos.

This place is literally a hole in the wall but not in a bad way. It is that small that if the owner were to sit inside he would be blocking the view of all the books. This is an interesting find in it is not grandiose or modern, but an old man selling books that he loves.

I walked by a number of times over two weeks and it was never open.

It’s closed and misplaced

I got a good book here and it will remind me of Lisbon.
