点评:Good experience at the National Aviary.
Arrived at the parking lot around 12:30pm on a Friday and there was only two (2) spots left in the entire lot. You can pay for parking ($7) at the lot kiosk or the ticketing desk inside the aviary. There are metered spaces in the surrounding area but I don't know the cost.
From the lot, it is a short walk to the entrance (3-5minutes for most). The entrance desk was easy...you can purchase tickets ($20 for adults) and pay for parking ($7) while there.
There are a few areas throughout the aviary including the wetlands, which include penguins and flamingos, and the tropical rain forest which includes ducks, ibis and parrots. There are also some other areas including birds or prey and an outdoor area which has condors and eagles.
There is a large central cafeteria area with lots of tables and chairs as well as a cafe which serves some snacks and beverages.
Finally there is a sizeable gift shop which contains a variety of items including clothing, stuffed toys, books, mugs and other trinkets.
Overall I had a good time here...I would plan to spend about 1-3 hours to complete the aviary, depending on how many exhibits you want to read or take in.
翻译:在国家鸟类保护区的体验很棒。
周五中午12:30左右到达停车场,整个停车场只剩下两个车位了。停车费可以在停车场自助缴费机或鸟类保护区内的售票处支付(7美元)。周边区域也有咪表停车位,但我不知道价格。
从停车场步行到入口很近(大多数人步行3-5分钟)。入口处的售票处很方便……你可以在那里购买门票(成人20美元)和支付停车费(7美元)。
鸟类保护区内有几个不同的区域,包括有企鹅和火烈鸟的湿地,以及有鸭子、朱鹭和鹦鹉的热带雨林。此外,还有一些其他区域,包括猛禽区和一个有秃鹰和老鹰的户外区域。
保护区中央有一个很大的自助餐厅,摆放着很多桌椅,还有一个咖啡馆,提供一些小吃和饮料。
最后,这里还有一家规模不小的礼品店,出售各种各样的商品,包括服装、毛绒玩具、书籍、马克杯和其他小饰品。
总的来说,我在这里玩得很开心……我建议参观鸟舍大约需要 1-3 个小时,具体时间取决于你想阅读或参观多少展品。
