Lots of potential, didn't end up learning much. Christmas experience an artistic letdown.
Bamburgh Castle的点评
点评：Visited Bamburgh in Dec 2025, hoping to learn more about the history of the place and the Northumberland coastline in general. The added bonus of Christmas at the castle sounded wonderful, so we happily paid the £20/person admission and walked inside.
It was soon revealed that the most informative part of the trip was in fact the timeline banner that could be read for free, before entering the ticket office. Once inside, there was little to do apart from walk around the ramparts, or head to the one open part of the castle to witness Christmas, as dreamt up by "renowned set designer, Charlotte Lloyd Webber".
Mrs Lloyd Webber appears to have done a lot of coasting on her family name, the decorations that greeted us would have been fantastic for a children's party, not so much befitting such a stately setting already adorned with examples of the pinnacles of human artistry.
The decor hid a great deal of the rooms and distracted from their contents (very little of which touched on anything pre-victorian, despite how much history the castle has). Most of the decoration appears to have been mainly sourced from Home Bargins, with spray painted monkey statues, plastic tinsel and other tat.
The worst part was the inclusion of AI-generated slop as included in some of the backdrops to the Christmas experience. In a place built by artisans and sporting the best in human art, it is frankly insulting to have the blind hand of generative AI have its works displayed alongside those of human master craftsmen.
I doubt Bamburgh Castle are aware of the use of AI within the "artworks" of the Lloyd Webber team, but it is present. Look for distorted door handles, shape-shifting animated skulls, knights that look like aliens and piles of gold that blend into nonsensical squiggles upon close inspection. You have paid for "artwork" that is intrinsically built on plagiarism due to its inclusion of generative AI content.
All in all, I won't be paying to return!

翻译：2025年12月，我们参观了班堡城堡，希望能更多地了解当地的历史以及诺森伯兰郡海岸线的风土人情。城堡里的圣诞节活动听起来很棒，所以我们欣然支付了每人20英镑的门票，走了进去。
然而，我们很快发现，这次旅行中最有价值的信息其实是售票处入口前可以免费阅读的时间轴横幅。进入城堡后，除了沿着城墙漫步，或者前往城堡唯一开放的区域欣赏由“著名舞台设计师夏洛特·劳埃德·韦伯”设计的圣诞装饰之外，几乎无事可做。
劳埃德·韦伯夫人似乎只是在利用家族名气而已。我们看到的装饰更像是儿童派对的装潢，与这座本身就装饰着人类艺术巅峰之作的庄严城堡格格不入。
装饰掩盖了许多房间，也分散了人们对房间内部物品的注意力（尽管城堡历史悠久，但其中几乎没有维多利亚时代之前的物品）。大部分装饰品似乎都来自廉价商店，比如喷漆的猴子雕像、塑料彩带和其他一些小玩意儿。
最糟糕的是，一些圣诞场景的背景中竟然出现了人工智能生成的粗糙作品。在一个由工匠建造、汇聚人类艺术精华的地方，让人工智能的拙劣之作与人类大师的作品并列展出，简直是一种侮辱。
我怀疑班堡城堡是否知道劳埃德·韦伯团队的“艺术作品”中使用了人工智能，但它的确存在。仔细观察，你会发现扭曲的门把手、会变形的动画骷髅头、看起来像外星人的骑士，以及仔细一看就会变成毫无意义的曲线的金块。你花钱买的“艺术品”本质上是建立在抄袭之上的，因为它使用了人工智能生成的内容。
总之，我不会花钱退货！
