点评:I have mixed feelings writing this review.
The M.K. Ciurlionis museum is wonderful in every way. Welcoming, spacious, great exhibits, I loved it. I recommend it to everyone.
Then I wanted to leave a review about The Kaunas Picture Gallery (Subdivision of M. K. Čiurlionis Art Museum) - it's not on trip advisor, and I found that it's a subdivision of this museum. This made me sad, because the experience was the opposite.
The Kaunas Picture Gallery is NOT family friendly. We sad the Soviet childhood exhibit. No problem in the basement, that was okay, though the exhibit was really lacking some explanation signs, more details, etc. Then we went up the stairs, went around a bit, and an older woman very directly harassed me because we had a stroller.
NOWHERE - not by the stairs, not by the door, was it said we couldn't have a stroller. No one told us, while we were carrying it up the stairs (no elevators). The Woman wouldn't even step aside to let me turn around - she stood in front of me, to back up, as if I had done something wrong. When I asked why we couldn't have a stroller, she said "this is a museum". I said that we had just been to the Ciurlionis museum with a stroller and she just repeated to get out.
It ruined our entire happy mood - the rest of the day, we were very frustrated. Being asked to leave kindly would have been one thing, but this woman treated us, essentially like we were purposefully doing wrong. For crying out loud, she wouldn't even step aside to give us room to turn around! VERY unpleasant.
So, while the actual Ciurlionis museum is great, AVOID the Kaunas Picture Gallery associated with it.
翻译:写这篇评论的时候,我的心情很复杂。
M.K. 丘利奥尼斯博物馆各方面都很棒。热情好客、空间宽敞、展品精彩,我非常喜欢。我推荐给大家。
然后我想写一篇关于考纳斯美术馆(M.K. 丘利奥尼斯艺术博物馆的分馆)的评论——它不在TripAdvisor上,我发现它是这家博物馆的一个分馆。这让我很难过,因为体验完全相反。
考纳斯美术馆并不适合全家参观。我们参观了苏联儿童展览。地下室的展览没有问题,还好,虽然展览确实缺少一些解说标志、更多细节等等。然后我们上楼,绕了一圈,一位老妇人非常直接地骚扰了我,因为我们带了婴儿车。
任何地方都没有——楼梯边、门口都没有,都没有说不能带婴儿车。我们推着婴儿车上楼的时候(没有电梯),也没人告诉我们。那个女人甚至不肯让我转身——她挡在我前面,让我后退,好像我做错了什么似的。我问她为什么不能带婴儿车,她说“这是博物馆”。我说我们刚推着婴儿车去过Ciurlionis博物馆,她就一直催促我们出去。
这毁了我们美好的心情——那天剩下的时间,我们都郁闷极了。如果礼貌地请她离开还好,但这个女人对待我们,简直就像我们故意做错事一样。天哪,她甚至不肯让我们转身!真是令人不快。
所以,虽然Ciurlionis博物馆本身很棒,但千万别去与之相关的考纳斯美术馆。
