点评:We went to check out the elephant exhibit which was good. We were disappointed that there were several activities in the main building that were out of order. There is not much available for snacks/lunch, so it was good that we brought a picnic.
There are a lot of hands on activities/exhibits, but they weren’t very compelling for my 11 year old, and required too much reading/explaining for my 6 year old to access independently.
Accessibility: outside there is a very long flight of stairs that is in disrepair and could be very dangerous. Inside some of the exhibits/displays are arranged in ways that would make navigation with a stroller or wheelchair challenging, especially if we were there on a busy day.
The fonts on a lot of the displays are small requiring you to get very close which blocks the views of other visitors.
Maps and signage could be more clear (and more numerous) for navigating the outside areas.
Cost: $60 for 1 adult and 2 kids. Too expensive. We got in for $54 with a AAA discount. I thought it was free with my MTA card, otherwise we probably would have skipped it.
If we lived nearby a membership would be a good idea to pop in and out of the exhibits and grounds (which were nice!), but being 90 minutes away I don’t anticipate we’ll be back.
翻译:我们去参观了大象展览区,挺不错的。不过让我们失望的是,主楼里有好几个活动项目都无法正常使用。可供购买零食或午餐的地方也很少,所以我们带野餐食物来真是明智之举。
园区里有很多互动式活动/展览,但对我11岁的孩子来说吸引力不大;而对于6岁的孩子而言,这些活动又需要阅读大量文字或依赖他人讲解才能参与,因此他们无法独立参与。无障碍设施:室外有一段非常长的楼梯,如今已破败不堪,可能十分危险。在室内,部分展品/展示品的摆放方式使得推婴儿车或使用轮椅的人难以通行,尤其是在游客众多的时候。
许多展示牌上的字体很小,需要凑得很近才能看清,这就妨碍了其他游客的视线。
用于指引室外区域的地图与标识可以更加清晰(数量也应更多)。费用:1名成人和2名儿童需支付60美元。价格实在太高了。我们凭借AAA折扣只花了54美元就进去了。我原以为凭我的MTA卡可以免费入场,不然我们可能就不会去了。
如果我们住在附近,办个会员卡倒是个不错的主意,这样就能随时进出参观展览和园区了(园区真的很不错!)。但由于我们住的地方离此有90分钟车程,我觉得以后应该不会再去了。
