点评:Painshill Park is a hidden gem just an hour from London (grab a train from Waterloo). This 18th-century English Landscape Movement masterpiece features sweeping lakes, dramatic vistas, and theatrical follies.
Since it was overcast during our visit, we missed seeing the abbey ruins reflecting in the lake; however, we loved the park anyway. It's worth a visit for the views from the Gothic Temple & Turkish Tent and to explore the Crystal Grotto.
The Crystal Grotto — England’s largest — sparkles with 10,000 crystals and feels straight out of a fairytale. Bonus: you can even get married there!
Fun history: a hermit was once hired to live here in solitude for seven years… and lasted just three weeks before sneaking off to the pub.
A magical, quirky park that’s perfect for history lovers, romantics, or anyone who loves a cinematic stroll. Just make sure to book tickets online -- it's cheaper.
翻译:佩恩斯希尔公园是一块隐秘的瑰宝,距离伦敦仅一小时车程(可从滑铁卢火车站乘火车前往)。这座18世纪英国风景画运动的杰作,以波澜壮阔的湖泊、壮丽的景色和戏剧化的装饰而闻名。
由于我们参观时天气阴沉,我们错过了湖中倒映的修道院遗址;然而,我们仍然爱上了这座公园。从哥特式神庙和土耳其帐篷欣赏美景,以及探索水晶石窟,都值得一游。
水晶石窟是英格兰最大的水晶石窟,镶嵌着10,000颗水晶,熠熠生辉,宛如童话故事中的场景。惊喜:你甚至可以在这里结婚!
有趣的历史:曾经有一位隐士受雇在这里隐居七年……而他只待了三周就溜进了酒吧。
这座充满魔力、奇特的公园非常适合历史爱好者、浪漫主义者或任何喜欢电影式漫步的人。记得在线预订门票——这样更便宜。
