点评:My wife and I walked slowly from the Overseas Chinese Museum (TA reviewed). We passed by the steps down to Cat Street which didn’t look much different than 2 years ago and would probably still be just as disappointing.
We eventually reached the temple entrance and had to register on-line using their ‘app’ to arrange our visit. My wife was able to register that she was a party of two, and thankfully, I’d got my passport in my man-bag, which the girl on the gate just glanced at and waved me in.
Despite all of the registering palaver the temple was heaving. We just followed the crowd from temple to temple. Be aware, there are plenty of steps.
As ever, look up to see the best of the architecture and colours. I really do love the ceilings and roofs, and the blue, yellow and red decorations. I regretted I had no turtle or fish food in my man-bag as I’m sure they’d have appreciated that more than me lighting an incense stick.
In the souvenir shop, my wife splashed out on a Buddha necklace which will ensure good luck, and so far, it has reminded her not to leave her rucksack in cabs and restaurants.
After a good hour we were at the exit and got a cab back to our hotel.
翻译:我和妻子从华侨博物馆(已在泰国旅游网上做过评论)缓慢步行离开。我们经过了通往猫街的台阶,那里的景象和两年前相比没什么变化,估计依旧会让人大失所望。
最终我们来到庙宇入口处,必须通过其“应用程序”在线登记才能安排参观事宜。我妻子成功登记了我们是两人同行;幸运的是,我的护照就放在斜挎包里,门口的工作人员只是瞥了一眼便让我进去了。尽管有各种登记手续要办,但寺庙里依然人潮涌动。我们只是跟着人群从一座寺庙逛到另一座寺庙。需要注意的是,那里的台阶非常多。
和往常一样,抬头仰望才能领略到最棒的建筑风格与色彩搭配。我特别喜欢那些天花板、屋顶以及蓝色、黄色和红色的装饰。真后悔包里没带龟粮或鱼食——我相信那些小动物们肯定比我点燃一支香更能从中获得乐趣。
在纪念品商店里……我的妻子花大价钱买了一条佛像项链,据说能带来好运。到目前为止,这条项链倒是提醒了她不要把背包留在出租车里或餐馆中。
一个多小时后,我们到了出口处,然后搭出租车回到了酒店。
