点评:We visited Lincoln Castle today and had a brilliant experience, made even better by our castle grounds tour guide, Ken Moore. Ken’s presentation style is engaging, funny and incredibly informative. His knowledge is astonishing – it honestly feels like he has centuries of history stored in his head. One minute we were laughing at his jokes, the next we were hearing about executions and other wonderfully grim murder details!
The rest of the castle is just as impressive. The Victorian Prison is fascinating and slightly chilling, and the wall walk offers fantastic views over Lincoln and the cathedral. The Magna Carta wasn’t on display during our visit, which we completely understood as it needs rest periods for preservation, but the other historic documents on show were just as interesting.
Lincoln Castle is well worth a visit, but Ken’s tour really made it memorable. Highly recommended — do the tour and hope you get Ken!
翻译:今天我们参观了林肯城堡,体验非常棒,这都要归功于我们的导游肯·摩尔。肯的讲解风格生动有趣,而且信息量极其丰富。他的知识渊博得令人惊叹——感觉他脑子里好像装着几个世纪的历史。前一秒我们还在听他讲笑话,下一秒就听到了关于处决和其他令人毛骨悚然的谋杀细节!
城堡的其他部分也同样令人印象深刻。维多利亚时代的监狱既引人入胜又略带一丝阴森,沿着城墙漫步可以欣赏到林肯市和大教堂的壮丽景色。我们参观的时候《大宪章》没有展出,我们完全理解,因为它需要定期展出以进行保护,但其他展出的历史文献也同样精彩。
林肯城堡非常值得一游,但肯的讲解让这次参观更加难忘。强烈推荐——一定要参加导览,希望你能遇到肯!
