El Ateneo, a large bookstore in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina.

El Ateneo is a world-famous bookstore that was once featured by National Geographic as the ' World's Most Beautiful Bookstore .' This building opened as a theater called ``Teatro Gran Splendid'' in 1919, and the dome-shaped ceiling is decorated with frescoes by Italian-born painter Nazareno Orlandi . In the early 2000s, the theater was renovated into a bookstore and reopened while retaining its luxurious interior, allowing visitors to browse for books in the beautiful space or enjoy coffee at the cafe attached to the former stage. You can read while drinking.
