点评:My husband and I were very disappointed. The gardens were unkempt and several water features as well as Mirror lake were filled with leaves and algae. Many plants were unlabeled. Access to the Bellingrath Home, the Asian Gardens, the Fowl River or Mirror lake were blocked off. We arrived at 4 only to find the gardens closed. The website said last tickets sold at 4 with garden closing at 5.
To purchase a ticket at Bellingrath an additional 8$ is added to the purchase price (even if you use cash)and if you order online, you were charged a fee to use the online service.
Finally, we were charged the special light show fee at 5pm even though it doesn't get dark until around 7pm. (29$) If we would have arrived earlier in the day, we would have seen all of the same decor for only 16$ . So basically we paid almost double
for the lights to be on which didn't matter because it was only 5pm and they didn't show. I wish Bellingrath could return to its former glory.
翻译:我和丈夫非常失望。花园里乱糟糟的,几个水景和镜湖里都长满了落叶和藻类。很多植物都没有标签。通往贝林格拉斯故居、亚洲花园、福尔河和镜湖的通道都被封锁了。我们下午4点到的时候,发现花园已经关门了。网站上说最后售票时间是4点,花园5点关门。
在贝林格拉斯买票需要额外支付8美元(即使使用现金),如果在线订票,还需要支付在线服务费。
最后,我们下午5点就被收取了特别灯光秀的费用,尽管天要到晚上7点左右才会黑。(29美元)如果我们早点到,就只花16美元就能看到同样的灯光秀了。所以,我们实际上花了几乎两倍的钱才看到灯光秀,但这无关紧要,因为当时才下午5点,灯光秀却没有亮。我希望贝林格拉斯能够恢复昔日的辉煌。
