点评:I did this tour about 9 years ago with my daughter on a quiet weekend. This time it was with my son on a weekday and was a little different to what I remember - first surprise was the rammed full car park and having to find the overflow parking, the second surprise was a very informative presentation as a preclude to the tour - this was an excellent explanation of how the power station works using brilliant down to earth analogies.
Obviously security is exceptionally high and safety paramount so a fair amount of preparation was required to get through security clearance, ID checks and ensure everyone had the right security gear. This is to be expected and for me only served to make the build-up to the tour more exciting!
The tour was excellent, not too difficult a walk and was ideally time for my son who is in Year 11 doing his GCSE's. The guides did not rush at all and made sure to allow people time to ask questions. I loved walking through the turbine room with the immense rumble of the turbines and generators even with wearing the ear protection. Thoroughly Recommended.
翻译:大约九年前,我和女儿在一个安静的周末参观了这个发电站。这次是和儿子在工作日一起去的,和记忆中的略有不同——首先是停车场爆满,我们不得不寻找临时停车位;其次是参观前的讲解非常精彩,讲解员用通俗易懂的比喻生动地解释了发电站的工作原理。
显然,安保措施非常严格,安全至上,因此需要做好充分的准备才能通过安检、身份检查,并确保每个人都佩戴了合适的安全装备。这在意料之中,对我来说,反而让参观前的准备工作更加令人兴奋!
参观体验非常棒,步行难度适中,时间安排也很适合正在备考GCSE的11年级儿子。导游讲解员不急不躁,确保每个人都有时间提问。即使戴着耳塞,我仍然很喜欢穿过涡轮机房,感受涡轮机和发电机巨大的轰鸣声。强烈推荐!
