Arkadia

I was wandering by the Rock Church today and walked into this bookshop. The owner’s wife greeted me and was very kind and suggested I stay awhile and see the shop, and then another worker did the same! The front is absolutely beautiful, spacious and yet packed with rare books, signed books, all the books you’d want. It’s mostly English but there are also French, German, and Spanish books that I saw. I couldn’t see the entire store because there was an international conference on JRR Tolkien’s languages going on. As in Elvish etc. But I did get to see the pool table (5 euros an hour), foosball, the snake, a model of Helsinki made of transformer parts, etc. etc.
They were very helpful and went back to the warehouse to get a box of books that I wanted. They have programs on every night with concerts, lectures, etc. I highly highly recommend making a stop here!
