Visitors can ascend the observation deck using the panorama elevator made by Finnish KONE Company. It has a transparent prism wall made of glass that gives an impression of a flight while lifting.

Thanks to a good landscape location of the Library, the Observation deck has become an attractive tourist object. The marvelous panorama of Minsk and the suburb at a height of over 73 meters is very impressive in any season. Photographing and filming are allowed.
