YALE CAMPUS.   Book lovers and history buffs should not miss a trip to this rare book library, where the main draw is one of the few remaining Gutenberg Bibles. Gutenberg's invention of the printing press is considered by many to be most world-altering development in the past thousand years, and this is where you can see the results of his work. Other exhibits are on display as well. Architecturally, the building itself elicits admiration with its translucent marble windows and thought-provoking sunken sculpture garden.   (© 10Best)
