点评:My Concierege at my hotel recommend one of the free tours at the City Chambers as he knew I was interested in photography.
Glkasgow was the second city of the Empire and this building empahsises this in abundance both inside and outside.
I arrived early and took some photos of the entrances, and there were hardly any people around.
The tour is a first come first served basis with around 25-30 visitors allowed at one time. You need to arrive 30 minutes before your tour to collect your pass.
The guide was very informative and showed the group around the ground and upper floors of the public spaces. However the Banqueting Hall was in use by schools, and the Council Chanbers were also going to be excluded from the tour, but due to a late meeting, the group was able to access the chamber.
The staircases are incredible particuarly the Marble Staircase, which is used in flims to replicate the Vatican.
I thoroughly recommend a visit to the City Chambers as part of your stay in Glasgow.
翻译:酒店的礼宾员知道我对摄影感兴趣,便向我推荐了市政厅举办的免费导览活动。
格拉斯哥曾是大英帝国的第二大城市,这座建筑从内外设计上都充分体现了这一点。
我提前到达,拍摄了一些入口处的照片,当时周围几乎没人。
导览活动采用先到先得的方式进行,每次允许约25至30名游客参加。您需要提前30分钟抵达现场领取参观凭证。导览员讲解内容丰富,带领大家参观了公共区域的底层及上层。不过,宴会厅当时正被学校使用,议事厅也原本不在参观范围内;但由于一场临时会议,我们得以进入议事厅参观。
这里的楼梯堪称绝妙,尤其是大理石楼梯——它常被用于电影拍摄中以模仿梵蒂冈的场景。
我强烈推荐各位在格拉斯哥逗留期间参观市政厅。
