点评:We visited TMAG with friends from Melbourne and their three kids, who are in town tracing their ancestry. We have been a few times and knew it was great - our friends are staying at MACq 01, just a 2-minute walk away, and had a Waterfront Historical Building Tour included in their hotel package — which they hadn’t done yet but were doing the following day but had heard it was also excellent.
After an excellent convict tour at Hobart Convict Penitentiary, TMAG was the perfect next stop. I find the museum is spacious, beautifully curated, and full of thoughtful exhibitions on Indigenous history, early Hobart settlers, Tasmanian wildlife, and Antarctic exploration. Staff like Luke were incredibly generous with their time. The kids stayed engaged the whole time. Its a real must for those looking at the big timeline of what happened in Tasmania in the past.,
The gift shop is excellent, with a great selection of local books, prints, and Tasmanian-made gifts.
Heads up - between the tour at the penitentiary they grabbed the $12 school holiday deal at Muirs which is a great fish and chip shop on the water front , which deal includes a kids’ meal, drink, and ice cream — great value and a beautiful waterfront setting and is open 7 days. The Pizzas are super large here.
Highly recommend this combination — especially if you’re travelling with kids or exploring family history. And best of all, TMAG is completely free!
翻译:我们和来自墨尔本的朋友以及他们的三个孩子一起参观了塔斯马尼亚历史博物馆 (TMAG)。朋友们来这里是为了追溯祖先。我们去过几次,知道那里很棒——我们的朋友住在MACq 01,步行两分钟就到了,他们的酒店套餐里包含海滨历史建筑之旅——他们之前还没去,但第二天就去了,听说也很精彩。
在霍巴特囚犯监狱体验了一次精彩的囚犯之旅后,TMAG 是完美的下一站。我发现博物馆空间宽敞,策展精美,充满了关于原住民历史、早期霍巴特定居者、塔斯马尼亚野生动物和南极探险的精彩展览。像卢克这样的工作人员非常慷慨地投入到参观中。孩子们全程都玩得很开心。对于那些想了解塔斯马尼亚过去历史的人来说,这里绝对是必去之地。
礼品店非常棒,有很多当地书籍、印刷品和塔斯马尼亚制造的礼品可供选择。
注意:在参观监狱的间隙,他们抢到了Muirs的12美元学校假期套餐。Muirs是一家很棒的海滨炸鱼薯条店,套餐包含儿童餐、饮料和冰淇淋——性价比很高,而且坐拥美丽的海滨景色,而且一周七天营业。这里的披萨超级大份。
强烈推荐这个套餐——尤其是带孩子一起旅行或探索家族历史的时候。最棒的是,TMAG完全免费!
