On June 9, I visited two libraries in Porto, including the library of Harry Potter. However, it’s important to note that this library doesn’t have any direct connection to the writer.If you love books and have a passion for discovering old and unique ones, I highly recommend a visit to “Livraria Chaminé da Mota.”
