Engaging Pacific Naval Museum in Esquimalt, BC
CFB Esquimalt Naval & Military Museum的点评
点评:Visited the Canadian Naval Museum with much engagement as toured through the museum for a couple of hours. We learnt that the dockyard was established along the Pacific Ocean in 1857 as the original first location for building ships. There are only two naval bases in Canada namely Esquimalt and Halifax. Admission fee is donation voluntarily. Its atmosphere was very naval and full of history to educate. There was a lack of crowd, so we were too comfortable to tour quietly without interrupting. The best part is to learn that the dutiful Canadian sailors were very active with their cruisers, destroyers, and corsairs to protect the merchant supply vessels from the German U-boats in the Atlantic Ocean from Canada to England during the World War II. Educational and beneficial for Canadian history!
翻译:我们兴致勃勃地参观了加拿大海军博物馆,在馆内游览了几个小时。我们了解到,船坞于1857年在太平洋沿岸建立,是加拿大最早的造船地点。加拿大只有两个海军基地,分别是埃斯奎马尔特和哈利法克斯。门票是自愿捐赠的。博物馆的氛围浓厚,充满了海军气息,历史底蕴也十分丰富。由于游客不多,我们可以很放松地安静参观,不会打扰到其他人。最精彩的部分是了解到,二战期间,尽职尽责的加拿大水兵驾驶着巡洋舰、驱逐舰和海盗船,在大西洋上保护从加拿大到英国的商船免受德国U型潜艇的袭击。这次参观既有教育意义,又对了解加拿大历史大有裨益!
