Walking Around Hopewell Culture National Historical Park
Hopewell Culture National Historical Park的点评
点评:Good trip. We arrived at approximately 1:30 pm and made our way towards the entrance of the museum. Admission was free, which is always a plus. The museum was on the smaller side and only contained a few informational plaques and artifacts out for display. There was also a small theatre that played a short, roughly 15 minute movie about the history of the site and the Hopewell culture. After viewing the movie, we made our way outside to explore the mounds. There were about a dozen or so mounds outside, that varied in size and shape. We were able to walk on the grassy surface and view the mounds from up close. There were additional informational plaques outside that went into detail about the background of each mound. After viewing the mounds, we opted to hike the Mound City Group Loop, which was a roughly 1 mile loop trail around the site. The trail was relatively easy and consisted of walking on a flat dirt/grassy surface for a majority of the walk. We were able to enjoy scenic views of the mounds and the riverbank below.
Tip: I recommend spending 1.5 hours here if you truly want to see everything.
翻译:这次旅行很棒。我们大约下午1点半到达,然后前往博物馆入口。门票免费,这当然是件好事。博物馆规模不大,只有几块信息牌和一些展品。里面还有一个小剧场,播放着一部大约15分钟的短片,介绍遗址的历史和霍普韦尔文化。看完电影后,我们走到外面去探索土墩。外面大约有十几个土墩,大小和形状各异。我们可以在草地上行走,近距离观察这些土墩。外面还有一些信息牌,详细介绍了每个土墩的背景。看完土墩后,我们选择徒步走“土墩城群环线”(Mound City Group Loop),这是一条环绕遗址的大约1英里长的环形步道。这条步道相对轻松,大部分路段都是平坦的泥土/草地。我们欣赏到了土墩和下方河岸的优美景色。
提示:如果您真的想看完所有内容,我建议您在这里停留 1.5 小时。
