8. Selexyz Bookstore, Maastricht, Holland

The 800-year-old Dominican church in Maastricht has been turned into one of the most beautiful bookshops in the world – Selexyz Bookstore. The store retains the character and charm of the old church. The construction of a multi-story steel structure with a massive ceiling houses the largest stock of books in English in the city. Reading here is a religious experience. It is a bookshop made in heaven.
