点评:I visited the Witch House website at 8 a.m. on the day I planned to visit and was placed in a virtual waiting room before being able to choose from the remaining time slots. Fortunately, I managed to get a ticket for the late afternoon, but tickets were going extremely fast!
The self-guided tour was great, and the staff were extremely friendly and happy to answer questions. You enter through the back of the house, which takes you directly into the gift shop. It’s best to make any purchases then before continuing into the rest of the home.
I spent about 30 minutes walking through the house and looking at its contents. It was fascinating to step inside the former home of Jonathan Corwin, one of the judges involved in the Salem witch trials. The rooms and displays offer a glimpse of what daily life may have looked and felt like during that time.
Once I was done, I exited the home through the front door and continued my lovely day in Salem feeling thankful that I was able to get inside the Witch House during the city’s busiest season.
翻译:我按照计划,在当天早上8点访问了女巫屋的网站,进入页面后先被安排进入虚拟等候室,之后才能选择剩余的参观时段。幸运的是,我成功抢到了傍晚时段的门票,不过门票出售速度实在快得惊人!
自助导览体验很棒,工作人员也格外友善,乐于解答各种问题。从房屋后方入口进入后,会直接到达礼品店。最好先在此时进行任何购买行为,然后再去参观房子的其他部分。
我花了大约30分钟时间环顾整栋房子并查看里面的陈设。能够走进乔纳森·科温曾经的住所真是令人着迷——他正是塞勒姆女巫审判案的审判官之一。那些房间与展品让我们得以一窥那个时代的日常生活究竟是什么样子。
参观结束后。我从前门离开房子,继续在塞勒姆度过美好的一天。能在这个城市最热闹的季节里进入女巫屋参观,我心中满是感激。
