点评:I travelled to Selby from York, an easy drive of half an hour. On walking to The Crescent, next to the main shopping area, the Abbey dominates the scene. On entering the Abbey I was welcomed and advised that a free tout was about to start.
The abbey is breathtaking on first entry, with stunning stain glass windows and archways. The tour guide Rachel, took us through each part of the vast abbey, pointing out tiny embroidery, filling in gaps in the stonework, and telling us the history of the abbey, the stain glass windows, and hidden secrets of the abbey you wouldn't know where there as a visitor. She involved the visitors by asking them to solve different questions about the abbey, and made the history of the abbey interesting, with great stories. Each of the stunning stained glass windows has a story.
A lovely time spent at Selby Abbey, with a great tour guide, Rachel. Tours can be booked in advance.
A cafe and shop is in the Abbey.
翻译:我从约克前往塞尔比,开车半小时即可轻松抵达。步行到主要购物区旁边的 The Crescent 时,修道院占据了主导地位。进入修道院后,我受到了欢迎,并被告知免费游览即将开始。
修道院一进门就令人叹为观止,拥有令人惊叹的彩色玻璃窗和拱门。导游 Rachel 带我们参观了这座巨大修道院的每个部分,指出了微小的刺绣,填补了石雕中的空隙,并向我们讲述了修道院的历史、彩色玻璃窗以及修道院隐藏的秘密,作为游客您不会知道这些秘密在哪里。她让游客参与进来,让他们解答有关修道院的不同问题,并通过精彩的故事让修道院的历史变得有趣。每个令人惊叹的彩色玻璃窗都有一个故事。
在塞尔比修道院度过了一段美好的时光,导游 Rachel 很棒。可以提前预订旅游。
修道院内有一家咖啡馆和商店。
