点评:If we're being honest, contemporary art doesn't quite spark my interest but with free entry and other great perks, it's definitely worth a quick visit. The viewing box on floor 5 provides a great view over the Tyne and Quayside, not one you want to miss and, when we visited, it was practically empty (morning in the summer holidays). Second to this, here might be the home to the greatest gift shop ever to exist! Every product is whimsical, creative and throughly thought through, there truly is something for everyone, none of the usual gift shop tat. As a side note, I purchased a vase designed to look like a pile of classics which unfortunately had a chip. When returning it, the staff were more than helpful when replacing it - not even needing to check the old one just getting me exactly what I needed!
翻译:说实话,当代艺术并没有激起我的兴趣,但由于免费入场和其他很棒的福利,绝对值得快速参观。 5 楼的观景箱可以俯瞰泰恩河和码头区的美景,不容错过。我们去的时候,里面几乎空无一人(暑假的早晨)。 其次,这里可能是有史以来最棒的礼品店! 每件产品都异想天开、富有创意、经过深思熟虑,真的有适合每个人的东西,不是一般的礼品店那种小玩意。 顺便说一句,我买了一个设计成看起来像一堆经典作品的花瓶,不幸的是它有一个缺口。 退货的时候,工作人员非常乐于助人,帮我更换了——我甚至不需要检查旧的,就给我拿来了我需要的东西!
