点评:I came across this museum just by chance and thought I'd go see it. So glad I did as it's a great place. The museum is free of charge and will take you awhile to completely visit. The museum is in the basement of the building and there is an escalator, stairs and an elevator. There are many, many different rooms to visit. It's basically a large loop where you follow the path around. It twists and winds through the various exhibits and rooms. Going one direction around you start at the present and work your way back through time. Going the opposite direction you start in prehistoric times and work your way to the present. There are some dark areas such as the short span where you navigate a the replica of a coal mine. There are few places you can sit and rest or just sit and take in an exhibit and/or video presentation. After the museum you can visit the state capital building which is an incredibly beautiful building.
The grounds around the museum are very pretty and there's plenty of seating and things to see.
Be aware all public parking is metered. It cost me $2 in quarters to park for 4 hours and that's about enough time to see most things. The roads around the area are fairly tight so I would not recommend trying this with an RV and I didn't see any RV parking.
翻译:我偶然发现了这家博物馆,就想去看看。很高兴我去了,因为它真的很棒。博物馆免费,但要完整参观需要一些时间。博物馆位于大楼的地下室,有自动扶梯、楼梯和电梯。里面有很多不同的房间可以参观。它基本上是一个大环路,你可以沿着这条路绕一圈。它蜿蜒穿过各种展品和房间。沿着一个方向走,你会从现在开始,然后回到过去。如果沿着相反的方向走,你会从史前时代开始,然后回到现在。博物馆里有一些比较暗的区域,比如你穿过煤矿复制品的那段短暂的路程。博物馆里几乎没有地方可以坐下来休息,或者只是坐下来欣赏展览和/或视频演示。参观完博物馆后,你可以参观州议会大厦,那是一座非常漂亮的建筑。
博物馆周围的庭院非常漂亮,有很多座位和值得参观的东西。
请注意,所有公共停车场都是计时收费的。我花了2美元的25美分停车4个小时,差不多够看大部分景点了。这附近的路比较窄,所以我不建议开房车来这里停车,而且我也没看到有房车停车位。
