点评:We’ve visited battlefields and museums all over South Africa so were excited to visit this one while staying in Kimberley on a brief vacation. It’s a bit out of town down a gravel road so be prepared to vibrate all the way there. Just before the entrance there is a monument to the Boer dead which is worth a quick stop. Just a little further down the road, you enter Magersfontein battlefield. You pay at the gate and drive up and around the hill to the visitors center. The restaurant was closed when we were there and there were no lights in the museum. The guys fixing the roof told us just to prop the door open which offered a little light. It’s a small museum but it offers some helpful background on the battle. It’s also worth walking up to the monument on top of the hill and also to the lookout point above the restaurant. You can drive around to other monuments (beware of the tortoises) but upkeep hasn’t been great and we decided to call it a day. It might be better to visit with a guide who really knows his or her stuff.
翻译:我们参观过南非各地的战场和博物馆,因此很高兴能在金伯利短暂度假时参观这个博物馆。沿着碎石路走,距离城镇有点远,所以要做好一路震动的准备。入口前有一座布尔人死者纪念碑,值得短暂停留。再往前走一点,你就进入了马格斯方丹战场。您在门口付款,然后开车绕山前往游客中心。我们去的时候餐厅已经关门了,博物馆里也没有灯光。修理屋顶的人告诉我们只要把门打开就可以提供一点光线。这是一个小型博物馆,但提供了一些有关这场战斗的有用背景。还值得步行前往山顶的纪念碑以及餐厅上方的了望点。您可以开车前往其他古迹(当心乌龟),但维护工作并不好,我们决定到此为止。与一位真正了解自己的知识的导游一起参观可能会更好。
