点评:This museum was a last-minute addition to our day trip to Liverpool schedule and, for a free attraction, it was very enjoyable.
We arrived about lunchtime and the cafe area was very full. It probably didn't help that it was raining outside too so a lot of people were trying to keep dry or get warm. I couldn't help but think they could make the cafe larger still to fit more people in as it was clearly very popular but it is already a good size and on a quieter day, you would have plenty of room to move about. My husband was the only one of us who stayed here to sample the food and was very impressed. He had lasagne and chips with a pot of tea but there was an array of hot and cold food and snacks to choose from at very reasonable prices. He said that the chips were 'some of the best he'd ever had' which was quite the thumbs up!
The nice thing about this museum is that it is very open-plan and does not feel claustrophobic at all. There is an option of stairs or an elevator to the upper floors and, having taken the stairs, I thoroughly recommend the latter! There is a fair bit of walking due to the openness of the space so you need to preserve what energy you can!
The exhibitions themselves were interesting but don't expect the world from this museum. It's main focus is Liverpool and it reflects that very well, taking great pride in it's footballing history and famous sons and daughters of the city amongst other exhibits showcasing the city's history.
All in all, a lovely couple of hours and a great way to get a feel for the history of the city, all in the shadow of the famous Liver Building just a short walk away. Absolutely worth the visit.
翻译:这个博物馆是我们临时决定去利物浦一日游的,作为一个免费景点,它非常令人愉快。
我们大约在午餐时间到达,咖啡馆区挤满了人。外面也在下雨,很多人都在努力保持干燥或取暖,这可能也没什么帮助。我不禁想,他们可以把咖啡馆做得更大,以容纳更多的人,因为它显然非常受欢迎,但它已经是一个很大的规模,在比较安静的日子里,你会有足够的空间走动。我丈夫是我们中唯一一个留在这里品尝食物的人,他印象非常深刻。他吃了千层面和薯条,喝了一壶茶,但这里还有各种冷热食物和小吃可供选择,价格非常合理。他说薯条是“他吃过的最好的薯条之一”,这真是值得称赞!
这个博物馆的好处是它非常开放,一点也不让人感到幽闭恐惧。可以选择走楼梯或乘电梯到达楼上,如果要走楼梯,我强烈推荐后者!由于空间开阔,所以需要走一段路,所以你需要尽可能地节省体力!
展览本身很有趣,但不要对这个博物馆抱有太大的期望。它的主要焦点是利物浦,它很好地反映了这一点,以其足球历史和这座城市著名的儿女为荣,以及其他展示这座城市历史的展品。
总而言之,这是一段美好的时光,也是感受这座城市历史的绝佳方式,所有这些都在著名的利物浦大厦的阴影下,只需步行一小段路即可到达。绝对值得一游。
