点评:A visit to this new museum is a must. If you are going to build a museum this is the way to do it. The building rises out of the landscape imitating the local rocks. Parking is in an indoor multi storey carpark. Cross the beautiful marble forecourt takes you to the museum entrance. Once through friendly security (a word of warning here, we did witness men being turned away in shorts and ladies they do appreciate modest dress) you are taken on an interactive journey through Omans history from the beginning of time. The museum takes you through the physical country, early civilisations, sea faring history through to the present day. There is an emphasis on Omans transformation into modern life since 1970. ( you may have to do your own research on 1970 before you go) The much loved forward thinking previous Sultan Qaboos and the present Sultan have a clear vision of which direction they wish modern Oman to proceed in.
Many exhibits were interactive and at no point do you feel rushed or overrun. In typical Omani style this is a calm, friendly space. Do take your time this is more than a one hour stop.
翻译:参观这个新博物馆是必须的。如果你要建一个博物馆,这就是你要做的。这座建筑模仿当地的岩石从景观中拔地而起。停车场位于室内多层停车场。穿过美丽的大理石前院,你就到了博物馆的入口。通过友好的安检后(提醒一下,我们确实看到穿短裤的男士被拒之门外,女士们则欣赏朴素的着装),你将踏上一段从古至今穿越阿曼历史的互动之旅。博物馆将带你了解这个国家、早期文明、航海历史直至今天。博物馆着重展示阿曼自 1970 年以来向现代生活的转变。(你可能需要自己研究一下 1970 年的情况)备受爱戴的具有前瞻性思维的前苏丹卡布斯和现任苏丹对他们希望现代阿曼发展的方向有着清晰的愿景。
许多展品都是互动的,你绝不会感到匆忙或不知所措。这是典型的阿曼风格,是一个平静、友好的空间。请慢慢来,这里会停留一个多小时。
