点评:We have visited the Cathedral twice during our stay in Manchester, the 1st visit was during the day, met by very friendly and informative staff. The stained glass windows are stunning. We were in awe of the beautiful building.
We then returned the next night for the light show. We bought the silver tickets which I am really glad we did as other than a drink (in a paper cup) I saw no benefit for the extra price. Our tickets said to arrive for 18.30 which I precisely what we did and was told to go away until 18.45. when we came back we were towards the front of the queue which very soon built up into a long queue. The tickets said 19.00 but we weren't began to be let in until this time, once we got in everyone was just stood in the nave. Very limited seats for those that needed them
We could hear people complaining about the later start as they had trains to catch.
The show started around 19.15.
I must have misread the information as I thought it was a light show to music which was a walk through, I didn't expect us to be stood for the whole time not moving.
It seemed to be a celebration of all Manchester has on offer centred around the Cathedral. We'd travelled 2 hours to attend.
Am interesting evening but not what we expected, glad we attended with our silver tickets. Unfortunately I've seen better light shows in other cities.
翻译:我们在曼彻斯特期间参观了两次大教堂。第一次是白天,接待我们的工作人员非常友好且知识渊博。教堂的彩色玻璃窗令人叹为观止,我们被这座美丽的建筑深深震撼。
第二天晚上,我们又去了一次,观看灯光秀。我们买了银票,现在想想真是太明智了,因为除了一杯饮料(纸杯装的)之外,我觉得多花的钱并没有其他好处。票上写着18:30到达,我们也准时到达,但被告知要等到18:45才能进去。当我们回来的时候,发现自己排在队伍的前面,但很快就排成了一条长队。票上写的是19:00开始,但直到19:00我们才被允许入场。进去之后,所有人都只能站在中殿里。座位非常有限,根本找不到座位。
我们能听到有人抱怨演出开始得太晚,因为他们还要赶火车。
演出大约在19:15开始。
我一定是误解了信息,我以为是那种可以边走边看的灯光音乐秀,没想到全程都要站着不动。
这似乎是一场以曼彻斯特大教堂为中心的曼彻斯特风情庆典。我们花了两个小时的车程才来参加。
虽然是个有趣的夜晚,但和我们预想的完全不一样,还好我们买了银票。可惜的是,我在其他城市看过更好的灯光秀。
