点评:We were traveling through the city and spent the night. A friend suggests we see this so we made an impromptu stop. I’m so glad we did. The architecture of the building was amazing. Simply beautiful and something I really wouldn’t have expected here. I later learned it was a part of the Univ of Pittsburgh campus. There were tours offered but they were full the day we went. However they also allow people to just wander the building and do a self tour. On the third floor there are different rooms designed to highlight various cultures around the world. Since it was summer these were closed unless you were on the official tour. We still got to peek into a couple rooms. After wandering we went to the top of the building to check the views of the city. The top floor isn’t very big so there’s not a lot of room to wander, just enough to take in the sights. Overall it was a great stop and one where I learned a lot. The building is amazing, something right out of Harry Potter, so for all those interested in architecture or who love history or just want something to do other than the normal sightseeing I recommend it. It’s totally free, parking was on the street and cheap. Go see it and be amazed as I was.
翻译:我们在城里旅行,并在那里过夜。一位朋友建议我们去看看,所以我们临时决定去看看。我很高兴我们这么做了。这栋建筑的建筑风格令人惊叹。简直美极了,我真的没想到这里会有这种感觉。后来我才知道,它是匹兹堡大学校园的一部分。那里有导览服务,但我们去的那天都满了。不过,他们也允许人们在建筑内随意参观,或者进行自助游览。三楼有不同的房间,旨在展示世界各地的文化。因为当时是夏天,除非你参加官方导览,否则这些房间都关闭了。我们仍然有机会参观了几个房间。逛完之后,我们去了楼顶,欣赏城市的景色。顶楼不是很大,所以没有太多的空间可以闲逛,刚好够欣赏风景。总的来说,这是一次很棒的停留,我学到了很多东西。这座建筑太惊艳了,简直就是哈利波特里的场景。所以,对于所有对建筑、历史感兴趣,或者只是想在普通观光之外做点别的事情的人来说,我都推荐它。它完全免费,街边停车也很便宜。去看看吧,你会像我一样惊叹不已。
