点评:I am into Art Deco architecture so I was looking forward to Napier which had been rebuilt in the 1930s. It took us a while to find a car park with appropriate parking periods and then we walked around Napier looking for Art Deco buildings. We found quite a few but I think, if you are interested, the Art Deco tour or the download-for-purchase map, will ensure you see more of them than us and, even more, understand them!
We walked along Marine Parade to see the Colonnade and Plaza as well as other Art Deco buildings such as the Six Sisters houses (some, we think, have been repainted since the last tourism photos so we are not 100% sure). We could also see the sunken garden along Marine Parade before finishing up at the National Aquarium of New Zealand. To get the most out of Napier it probably pays to take some tours as our wanderings left me a bit dissatisfied. Nice restaurants (e.g. Mexicali) though.
翻译:我非常喜欢装饰艺术风格的建筑,所以对20世纪30年代重建的内皮尔这座城市充满期待。我们花了好一会儿才找到一个停车时间合适的停车场,然后就开始在内皮尔四处寻找装饰艺术风格的建筑。我们找到了不少,但我觉得,如果你也感兴趣,参加装饰艺术之旅或者购买下载地图,肯定能让你看到比我们更多的建筑,而且更能理解它们!
我们沿着滨海大道漫步,欣赏了柱廊和广场,以及其他一些装饰艺术风格的建筑,比如六姐妹楼(我们觉得有些楼在上次旅游宣传照之后重新粉刷过,所以不能百分百确定)。我们还沿着滨海大道参观了下沉式花园,最后去了新西兰国家水族馆。要想充分体验内皮尔的魅力,参加一些旅行团或许是个不错的选择,因为我们自己闲逛的感觉有点儿意犹未尽。不过,内皮尔的餐厅倒是很不错(比如Mexicali餐厅)。
