There are multiple ways and techniques to visualize topic models - we will be focusing on the methods implemented and compatible with Gensim, but like we have done throughout the book, we will be providing links and documentation to the other popular topic modeling visualization tools.

One of the most popular topic modeling visualization libraries is LDAvis - an R library build largely on D3, it has been ported to Python as pyLDAvis and is just as nifty in Python and is very well integrated with Gensim as well.
