点评:GETTING HERE AND PARKING: Parking right by the fortress. Free for visitors. We had online tickets which you simply present at the entrance to take the lift up to the fortress. You can also walk up there and that ticket is cheaper, though it's a rather steep uphill walk which takes about 30 minutes (we took the lift up and down).
THE FORTRESS: You can access the courtyard and some internal spaces such as the falconry museum and exhibitions on the fortress as a film location. The rest you get to tour with a guide.
GUIDED TOUR: Included in our ticket (all inclusive ticket), and this was a huge disappointment. The spaces in the fortress are small and narrow and our group was way too large for any of us to truly enjoy it. We had to queue to see the things about which the guide was talking and half of them we didn't even get to see as we had to move on to the next room.
- Too short and very rushed. We had no time to read the signs (of which there were many) or take in what the guide was talking about. When we stopped to read or take a picture, we were ushered on by the guide or the rest of the group.
- Non-German speakers are provided with audio guides, however you don't have time to listen through one bit before it's time to move onto the next. Also, the guide talks simultaneously which adds to the rushed feeling.
BIRD SHOW: The show and the history of falconry is what took our breaths away, a true art that we knew nothing about until now. Watched it both times that day and it was nothing short of spectacular.
Overall an okay experience but probably won't come back.
TIP: Read up on the history of the fortress or watch a documentary beforehand, that way you will be less dependent on the guided tour for this information. The history is very intriguing.
TIP#2: Plan on staying for at least 3 hours, that way you have time for lunch and rest. There's lots to see.
翻译:如何到达及停车:城堡旁边就有停车场,对游客免费开放。我们提前在线购买了门票,只需在入口处出示门票即可乘坐电梯上到城堡。您也可以步行上去,那样票价会更便宜一些,不过这是一段相当陡峭的上坡路,大约需要30分钟才能抵达(我们选择坐电梯上下)。
城堡内部:您可以进入城堡的庭院以及部分内部区域,比如猎鹰博物馆,还能参观关于城堡作为电影拍摄地的展览。其余部分则可以在导游的带领下参观。
导游讲解服务:此项服务已包含在我们的门票中(全包门票),但实际体验却令人大失所望。堡垒内的空间又小又窄,而我们团队的人数实在太多,导致没人能好好欣赏这些景点。我们不得不排队才能看到导游所介绍的内容,甚至有一半的景点我们根本没来得及看,因为必须赶往下一个房间。
——讲解时间太短,整个参观过程也非常仓促。我们根本没有时间去阅读那些标识牌(数量还不少),也来不及听懂导游在说什么。每当我们停下来阅读或拍照时,导游或其他游客就会催促我们继续前进。
—— 虽然为非德语使用者提供了语音导览,但在我们赶往下一站的途中根本没时间听完一段语音。此外,导游还会同时讲解,这就更让人感觉时间紧迫、步调匆忙。观鸟表演:这场表演以及猎鹰驯养的历史真让我们叹为观止——这真是一门我们此前完全不了解的艺术。那天我们观看了两次表演,实在精彩至极。
总体来说体验还行,但我们大概不会再来了。
小贴士:事先了解一下这座堡垒的历史或观看相关纪录片吧,这样就不必完全依赖导游来获取这些信息了。它的历史实在非常有趣。
小贴士2:建议预留至少3个小时的参观时间。这样你就有时间吃午饭和休息了。有很多值得一看的东西呢。
