点评:People who think the Anne Frank House is a good experience are out of their minds. If you're *actually* interested about the history of Anne Frank, read her diary. Read it more than once. Then, go down the wikipedia and youtube rabbit hole. I get it... I wanted to go here, because I love her story. But it's definitely underwhelming.
Tickets are sold ahead of time by a general time slot. I guess the idea is to space out crowds, but let me tell you, it won't make a difference. They sell out weeks in advance, and even if you go to the evening spots, as I did, they still cram people in, and you'll be moving at a snails' pace. They need to halve (at minimum) the people they let in at a time.
Just as bad, that they push the audio guides on you pretty hard, saying you'd not know a thing without listening to the guides as you go by scanning these numbered stations. It felt dystopian. As if we're not addicted to our devices enough, every room you'll hear the *beep* *beep *beep* of the audio guides getting scanned, followed by full-volume commentary in various languages, coming from every audio device in every corner of the claustrophobic rooms.
Hardly any redeeming factors here. I love Anne, but this abomination of an over-touristed location has really let her down.
翻译:那些觉得安妮之家体验不错的人真是疯了。如果你真的对安妮·弗兰克的历史感兴趣,那就去读她的日记,多读几遍。然后去维基百科和YouTube上搜索一下。我明白……我本来想去,因为我喜欢她的故事。但那里的体验绝对不尽如人意。
门票是提前按时间段出售的。我猜他们的目的是为了分散人流,但我告诉你,这根本没用。门票提前几周就卖光了,即使你像我一样去晚上的场馆,那里仍然挤满了人,你只能像蜗牛一样慢吞吞地走。他们至少应该把每次进场的人数减半。
同样糟糕的是,他们极力推荐语音导览,说你不一边听着导览一边浏览那些编号的站点,什么也不知道。感觉很反乌托邦。好像我们对电子设备还不够上瘾似的,每个房间都能听到语音导览扫描的“嘟嘟嘟嘟”声,接着是各种语言的全音量解说,从幽闭房间每个角落的每个音频设备里传出来。
这里几乎没有什么可取之处。我喜欢安妮,但这个游客过多的地方真是让她失望透顶。
