Worth visiting the Darwin research centre if you're in Puerto Ayora
Charles Darwin Research Station的点评
点评:If you're staying in Puerto Ayora then you can walk here. As you approach the entrance gate there is a small 2 storey building with a gift shop and tour company based in it. It's here you will be approached by guides for a tour, however this is a tour to the the tortoise breeding centre. The visit to the research centre is actually free. As you walk up the road you wills a fork to the breeding centre , but just walk straight on. There is a small office on the way where a guard was sitting and you can get your passport stamped with some Galapagos stamps. There is also a similar stamp in the main exhibition centre when you enter.
The Exhibition Hall as the skeleton of a whale and various exhibits and reading material. There is also a souvenir shop where you can by some nice souvenirs labelled with the Darwin Research Centre. Attached to the research centre is a place to eat and cool down with some ice cream. There are two small beaches in the area which you will pass as you walk to the centre. Playa de La Estacion is a small sandy beach but was quite crowded when we went on a Sunday.
Given the significance. of Darwin t these islands it's worth a visit but just don't expect a lot of detailed information about Darwin, this is much more about the research the organisation is doing on the islands.
翻译:如果您住在阿约拉港,那么您可以步行到这里。当您接近入口大门时,会看到一栋两层小楼,里面有一家礼品店和一家旅游公司。在这里,导游会带您参观,但这是一次参观乌龟繁殖中心的旅行。参观研究中心实际上是免费的。当您沿着路走上去时,您会遇到一个通往繁殖中心的岔路,但只需一直往前走。路上有一个小办公室,里面坐着一名警卫,您可以在护照上盖上加拉帕戈斯群岛的印章。当您进入主展览中心时,也会看到类似的印章。
展览厅里有鲸鱼的骨架和各种展品和阅读材料。这里还有一家纪念品商店,您可以在那里买到一些标有达尔文研究中心的精美纪念品。研究中心旁边有一个吃饭和吃冰淇淋的地方。您步行到中心时会经过该地区的两个小海滩。 Playa de La Estacion 是一个小沙滩,但我们周日去的时候人很多。
鉴于达尔文岛的重要性,这些岛屿值得一游,但不要期待太多关于达尔文的详细信息,这更多的是关于该组织对这些岛屿进行的研究。
