点评:Outstanding museum. MOH recipients are well presented with an amazing number of personal effects on display for each. Great educational stop for children and young adults; actually great for anyone, even those without an interest in the military. As an old veteran of the US Army I thoroughly enjoyed my visit as did my wife.
Great cafe on the first floor past the gift shop. However, the on-line menu only shows a small portion of the food available including fresh cookies baked daily. Food was outstanding and quite inexpensive given the setting (a museum).
Also has a great staff. Everyone from the front desk to the cafe to the outstanding tour guide we had (spend the money and take the personal tour)! Thanks to all who welcomed us.
My only negative is the poor entry for disabled persons. Big miss here by the architects! The steep pedestrian ramp leading from the public parking lot up to what appears to be the museum entrance is followed immediately by many steps leading down to the actual entrance. Combined, these are a real bear for the elderly and disabled to manage.
The only true “handicapped entrance” is via the loading dock door directly across from handicapped parking. There is a sign near the overhead dock door that provides a phone number to call if you need assistance entering via the dock. However, the sign is poorly placed and insufficiently marked to readily see it upon arrival. I missed it and had a tough time navigating in. Management needs to correct this with better signage and improved notices on the museum website.
In spite of that I highly recommend.
翻译:博物馆非常棒。荣誉勋章获得者的展品陈列精美,每位勋章获得者都拥有数量惊人的个人物品。对于儿童和青少年来说,这里是一个绝佳的教育场所;事实上,即使是对军事不感兴趣的人,也会觉得这里很棒。作为一名美国陆军退伍老兵,我和我的妻子都非常享受这次参观。
一楼礼品店旁边有一家很棒的咖啡馆。不过,网上菜单只显示了部分菜品,包括每日新鲜烘焙的饼干。考虑到博物馆的地理位置,食物非常美味,而且价格也相当实惠。
博物馆的工作人员也很棒。从前台到咖啡馆,再到我们遇到的那位出色的导游(强烈推荐付费参加私人导览)!感谢所有接待我们的人。
我唯一不满的是无障碍通道的设计。这是建筑师的一大疏忽!从公共停车场通往看似博物馆入口的陡峭人行坡道之后,紧接着就是许多通往真正入口的台阶。对于老年人和残疾人来说,这两条坡道加起来实在太难走了。
唯一真正的“无障碍入口”是位于残疾人停车位正对面的装卸货平台门。装卸货平台门附近有一个指示牌,上面提供了一个电话号码,如果您需要帮助通过装卸货平台进入,可以拨打该号码寻求帮助。然而,该指示牌位置不佳,标识也不够清晰,以至于到达时很难注意到。我错过了它,费了好大劲才找到入口。管理方需要改进这一点,设置更清晰的指示牌,并在博物馆网站上发布更完善的通知。
尽管如此,我仍然强烈推荐这里。
