点评:Having been to a lot of Civil War battlefihe elds and toured other museums, this somewhat paled in comparison. There were no helpful guides, just two passive guys who seemed bored behind the admission counter near the gift store, My favorite "unique" feature was the series of touchscreen maps for each year of the Civil War, since the maps allowed browsers to select a specific geographic location by year to drill down to learn more information. Having been told by an outside tour guide that a primary reason for the Confederacy capitol being relocated to Richmond was the exisitence of the Tredegar foundary, which was key for manufacturing of steel plates for battlehships, cannons, etc., it would have been nice to see that story line explained. There was a lot of nearby construction, so perhaps this museum is a work in progress? I felt abused by the $10 per hour parking charge. I have not seen all of the other RIchmond attractions, but unless you have minimal Civil War knowledge, you should consider skipping this and doing something else if you have limited time in RIchmond. Very disappointed in the experience. Not worth $17 admission for 1 senior ticket and $20 for 2 hours of parking!
翻译:去过很多南北战争战场遗址,也参观过其他博物馆之后,这个博物馆相比之下略显逊色。没有热情的导游,只有两个百无聊赖、态度冷漠的工作人员站在礼品店附近的售票处后面。我最喜欢的“特色”是那一系列对应南北战争年份的触摸屏地图,因为浏览者可以通过地图选择特定年份的地理位置,深入查看更多信息。一位外部导游告诉我,南方邦联首都迁至里士满的主要原因之一是特雷德加铸造厂的存在,该铸造厂是制造战舰、大炮等所需钢板的关键工厂。如果博物馆能解释一下这段历史就更好了。附近有很多建筑工地,所以也许这个博物馆还在建设中?每小时10美元的停车费让我感觉被宰了。我还没参观过里士满的其他景点,但除非你对美国内战有基本的了解,否则如果你在里士满时间有限,最好还是放弃这个景点,去其他地方看看。这次体验非常令人失望。一张老年人票要17美元,停车两小时还要20美元,太不值了!
