点评:Today we visited the Wool Museum and its worth its $10 entrance fee. The museum was well set out with 4 floors of Geelong's History of Agriculture (sheep-wool), History Woollen and Scouring Mills and examples of all textile machinery that made blankets, carpets rugs etc.
We also visited the old Geelong Jail and for the oldies and the history and tour of the old jail was fantastic whilst treatment of inmates was eye opening. It's a must visit and the entry fee was $18 for Seniors- The entry fee is high but if you are interested in the history side it's well worth the fee. (5-star rating)
Finally, we also visited Geelong Art Gallery another great visit if you are into Arts pieces in the 1800s -this was a free entry and again very interesting. ( 4-Star Rating(
All these places are a leisurely walk from the train station with the Geelong Jail approximately 1.5 Klm from the Geelong Station.
翻译:今天我们参观了羊毛博物馆,10美元的门票物有所值。博物馆布局合理,共有4层展区,分别展示了吉朗地区的农业发展史(尤其是羊毛产业)、各时期的羊毛纺织与洗涤工厂,以及用于制造毛毯、地毯等产品的各类纺织机械。
我们还参观了古老的吉朗监狱。对于喜欢历史的人来说,这场参观体验实在棒极了;不过监狱里对待囚犯的方式则令人触目惊心。绝对值得一游!老年人门票价格为18美元。虽然票价不便宜,但如果你对历史感兴趣的话,这个价格绝对物有所值。(五星评级)
最后,我们还参观了吉朗艺术馆。如果你喜欢19世纪的艺术作品,这里也是个绝佳的去处——门票免费,同样非常有趣。(四星评级)
所有这些景点都离火车站不远,步行即可抵达;其中吉朗监狱距离吉朗火车站约1.5公里。
