Because of the number of books, this city is named the Norwegian Book City. Hundreds of thousands of books can be found easily from bookstores, bars and even in the beach. Most book stores around the city sell used books because the sellers here have the principle that old books must be preserved in the midst of an increasingly digital age.
Tourists who want to come for the literature can schedule their visits here, because used bookstores are mostly open in mid-May to the end of June. Throughout the month tourists can also visit the annual literary festival, the Solstice Book Fair.

This Norwegian Book City began hoarding books since 1995. Since then, the collection of books in the city has been increasing so that if all the books on all city shelves are placed in one shelf they would stretch for 4 kilometers. But Mundal is not the only city in the world with more books than people.
The remote Hay-on-Wye village in Wales is similar, with a population of only 1,400 people and has thousands of books in the city. This city also has a literary festival and is home to dozens of bookstores.
