点评:First time visitors to Concord NH and to the beautiful and historic statehouse. We did not have a reservation which was completely fine. We just entered the Capitol at the front door, were greeted and then went into the Visitors Center in Room 119. Volunteer tour guide Philip provided a very informative and fun fact tour of the many rooms of the Capitol. Who knew this is the oldest continuously used legislative chamber in America? And that there are 400 elected State Representatives? Also, that there is one Representative per 3400 citizens of NH? And they are paid $100 per year? Our guide pointed out many famous portraits such as Lincoln, Washington and New Hampshire-born U.S. President Franklin Pierce. The visitor center was staffed by welcoming and helpful staff (lead by Virginia) who provided additional information about Concord and the Capitol. As visitors from Texas, this tour provided an excellent representation of Concord and the State. Totally a must see for Concord visitors.
翻译:第一次来到新罕布什尔州康科德,参观美丽而历史悠久的州议会大厦。我们没有预订,这完全没问题。我们从前门进入国会大厦,受到欢迎后进入 119 室的游客中心。志愿者导游菲利普带我们参观了国会大厦的许多房间,内容丰富且有趣。谁知道这是美国连续使用时间最长的立法会议厅?有 400 名民选州众议员?此外,每 3400 名新罕布什尔州公民就有一名众议员?他们的年薪是 100 美元?我们的导游向我们介绍了许多著名的肖像,如林肯、华盛顿和出生于新罕布什尔州的美国总统富兰克林·皮尔斯。游客中心的工作人员热情友好(由弗吉尼亚州工作人员带领),他们提供了有关康科德和国会大厦的更多信息。作为来自德克萨斯州的游客,这次旅行很好地展示了康科德和该州。康科德游客绝对不容错过。
