点评:Before starting our cruise of the United Kingdom, I must admit that I had never heard of Skara Brae. I'm sure that I was not the only one either. What is the Skara Brae? It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is a stone built Neolithic Village. What does Neolithic mean? Another name for Neolithic is the New Stone Age. So the Skara Brae was built a long long long long time ago. This village is over 5000 years old!! That is older than Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids in Egypt!! It is the oldest known village in all of Europe where you can still see the houses with their original stone furniture folks.
It is truly incredible how well preserved this village is. Start at the visitor center to purchase your tickets. It would better to buy your tickets online for a lower price and to guarantee you get in. Before you see the original village, stop by the replica Neolithic house to see how it may have looked back in the day. After that, follow the path to view the 9 Neolithic houses. Make sure you follow the rules and remain on the path!! Do not be "that guy" who has to touch everything and have a selfie with the ancient artifacts!!
We had an amazing time learning about Skara Brae, and imagining how our ancestors may have lived over 5000 years ago. It is situated in a stunning setting in Scotland overlooking the beach and ocean!! Back at the visitor center grab a bit at their cafe if you are hungry, and make sure you check the gift shop for souvenirs on your way out.
翻译:在开始我们的英国巡游之前,我必须承认我从未听说过斯卡拉布雷。我敢肯定我不是唯一一个听说过的人。斯卡拉布雷是什么?它是联合国教科文组织世界遗产。它是一个用石头建造的新石器时代村庄。新石器时代是什么意思?新石器时代的另一个名字是新石器时代。所以斯卡拉布雷建于很久很久以前。这个村庄有 5000 多年的历史了!!比巨石阵和埃及的大金字塔还要古老!!它是整个欧洲已知最古老的村庄,你仍然可以看到带有原始石制家具的房屋。
这个村庄保存得如此完好真是令人难以置信。从游客中心开始购买门票。最好在线购买门票,价格更低,而且可以保证你进去。在你看到原始村庄之前,先去参观复制的新石器时代房屋,看看它过去的样子。之后,沿着小路去参观 9 座新石器时代的房屋。一定要遵守规则,不要离开道路!!不要成为“那个必须触摸一切并与古代文物合影的家伙”!!
我们度过了一段美妙的时光,了解了斯卡拉布雷,并想象了我们的祖先在 5000 多年前的生活。它坐落在苏格兰一个令人惊叹的环境中,俯瞰着海滩和海洋!!回到游客中心,如果你饿了,可以去他们的咖啡馆吃点东西,出去的时候一定要去礼品店看看有没有纪念品。
