点评:Bedgebury Pinetum provides a truly unique/rare experience – an arboretum specialising primarily in pines/conifers.
It is in fact a world-leading collection of these trees, and contains over 12,000 of various types.
These are spectacular specimens, towering ancient and veteran examples – boasting diverse old growth. A real treat for the eyes.
In addition to this, Bedgebury Forest has miles of trails for family cycling and mountain biking, walking, and running. Charity running events are held here on occasion too.
As you can imagine, at Christmas time the annual light show is given a fantastic world-class Christmassy backdrop, (even if said Xmas light show/trail itself could be improved, in my opinion). Conifers are winter champions, associated with Lapland and such, so they lend excellently to a Christmas setting.
Overall I highly recommend a visit to Bedgebury and it's somewhere I try to visit at least once per year as a Kent resident.

事实上,它是世界领先的松树/针叶树收藏地之一,拥有超过 12,000 棵不同品种的松树。
这些都是壮观的树木,既有高耸入云的古老树种,也有参天古树,展现了丰富多样的原始森林。绝对是一场视觉盛宴。
此外,贝奇伯里森林 (Bedgebury Forest) 还拥有绵延数英里的步道,适合家庭骑行、山地自行车、徒步和跑步。这里偶尔也会举办慈善跑步活动。
可以想象,圣诞节期间,一年一度的灯光秀会呈现出世界一流的圣诞氛围(尽管在我看来,灯光秀本身还有提升空间)。针叶树是冬季的佼佼者,与拉普兰等地有着密切的联系,因此它们与圣诞主题完美契合。
总而言之,我强烈推荐您去贝奇伯里参观,作为肯特郡的居民,我每年至少都会去一次。
