点评:Spectacular gothic cathedral with the tallest spire, and the largest cathedral close which has some other architectural gems including Edward Heath's home. There are lots of vistas/photo ops as you walk around.
Ladies on the reception desk were very friendly and chatty, but, as it was after April 1st, the entrance fee had gone up from £13 to £14.50! This also includes a viewing of the Magna Carta. After the carved and ornate exterior, I found the interior almost plain. The font (William Pye - designer) - looked more like an infinity pool, but it was quite the hit with Japanese tourists & I had to wait ages to get a shot!! Obviously a star attraction! I spent over a hour inside the cathedral, found the gift shop particularly tacky, ate in the refectory - not bad, good value but clumsy staff and not enough tables!
翻译:这座哥特式大教堂气势恢宏,拥有最高的尖顶,教堂周围环绕着其他建筑瑰宝,包括爱德华·希思的故居。漫步其中,处处皆是美景,也是绝佳的拍照地点。
接待处的女士们非常友好健谈,但由于是在4月1日之后,门票价格从13英镑涨到了14.50英镑!门票包含《大宪章》的参观。与教堂雕刻精美、装饰华丽的外观相比,内部显得有些朴素。洗礼池(由威廉·派伊设计)看起来更像一个无边泳池,但它却深受日本游客的喜爱,我排了很久的队才拍到一张照片!显然,这里是教堂的一大亮点!我在教堂里待了一个多小时,觉得礼品店特别俗气,在餐厅吃了饭——味道还不错,物有所值,但服务员动作有些笨拙,而且桌椅也不够。
