点评:Amazing sites and a must visit. The drive is a lot, so plan accordingly. You have to register to view any of the good stuff. The tours are where it took a negative for me. The rangers are following a script, that is lite on content and context but spends a ridiculous amount of time on community as you stand around a pit called a “Kiva”. Cool but all your time is spent standing around while the Ranger talks. For Crystal Palace, which is amazing, you walk down, walk in front of the whole thing, stand around a kiva for 20 minutes and then you exit. I wanted to look around, take pictures but you can’t because you’re either walking with the group and stopping for pics slows the group or you’re standing there listening to the Ranger. The lengthy Ranger diatribe and lack of ability to view and explore was a negative as well as their weird script. Also note that the visitor center closes at 4pm. You’ll be hard pressed to catch that at the end of the day as it’s 20-30 minutes from the cliff dwellings back to the front. While the whole park is very well maintained, it’s starting to feel like you can look at a distance, and have a passing glance at some of the spaces but not too close. Also note the museum has the slimest examples of artifacts I’ve ever seen! Literally <5 pieces of original pottery displayed with a lot of recreations from 1936? Whatever that’s about, I don’t understand.
翻译:景点令人惊叹,绝对值得一游。路程很长,所以要提前做好计划。参观任何精彩景点都需要注册。对我来说,导览体验是最大的败笔。导游照本宣科,讲解内容空洞乏味,却花了大量时间在名为“基瓦”(Kiva)的坑周围讲解当地文化。虽然挺有意思,但所有时间都浪费在听导游讲解上。水晶宫本身非常壮观,但参观流程却很复杂:你走下去,走到整个遗址前面,在基瓦周围站上20分钟,然后就离开了。我想四处看看,拍拍照,但根本没法拍,因为要么你得跟着团队走,停下来拍照会拖慢队伍速度,要么你就得站在那里听导游讲解。导游冗长的讲解、缺乏参观自由以及他们那套奇怪的讲解方式都是败笔。另外,游客中心下午4点就关门了。一天下来,你很难有机会近距离欣赏到悬崖居所,因为从那里回到公园前面需要20-30分钟。虽然整个公园维护得很好,但感觉现在只能远远地看看,匆匆瞥一眼,而不能走得太近。另外,博物馆里的文物是我见过最少的!展出的真品陶器不到5件,大部分都是1936年的复制品?我实在不明白这是怎么回事。
