Scuola di Atene, a large four-story cafe located near Bosu-dong Book Street, stands out for its exterior, which resembles a large stack of books. Its signature menu is Mildawon Coffee and Mildawon Cream Coffee, named after the Mildawon Coffee House where Busan's literati got tother when the city served as the wartime capital, in keeping with the historical value of the Bosu-dong Book Street. The third and fourth floors of the café are lined with large bookshelves for you to use at your leisure.

The main feature of the place is Raphael's painting of the Scuola di Atene, which covers the entire ceiling. Looking up at the ceiling from the downstairs staircase, you can't help but be overwhelmed by the magnificent sight. Framed portraits of Raphael, statues of Apollon and other unique sculptures add to the mystical atmosphere of the cafe. There's a photo spot sign inside the café, so follow the instructions to get some great shots.

Take a special break at this special café that recalls the ancient, medieval and modern literary history of Europe and Busan.
