点评:I was really looking forward to this experience after seeing the incredible pictures advertised online. Unfortunately, I couldn't have been more disappointed.
The actual light show lasted around 12 minutes, with a man explaining what it was all about in a very monotone voice, which made the whole experience even duller. The boats on the water were lovely, but there were only around seven of them, and that was pretty much the entire show.
Once it finished, we were left standing around for nearly an hour and a half waiting for the fireworks to begin. My understanding from the advertised timings was that the illuminations would run from 7pm until 8.20pm, followed by fireworks at 8.30pm. This certainly wasn't what we experienced.
Considering we travelled two hours and paid for an overnight hotel stay specifically to come and see this, it was a huge disappointment.
Matlock itself is a lovely village and well worth visiting, but sadly, the illuminations were dreadful. They certainly didn't live up to the pictures or expectations created by the advertising. I honestly wouldn't have made the journey for the show had I known what to expect.
翻译:在看到网上宣传的那些震撼的图片后,我原本对这次体验满怀期待。可惜,结果却让我大失所望。
实际的灯光秀仅持续了大约12分钟,期间有个男子用极其单调的语调解说着内容,这使得整个体验更加枯燥乏味。水面上的船只倒是很漂亮,但总共也就七八艘而已,这几乎就是整场演出的全部内容了。
演出结束后。我们站在那里等了将近一个半小时,就为了等待烟花表演开始。根据宣传的时间表,灯光秀应该从晚上7点持续到8点20分,随后在8点30分开始放烟花。但实际情况显然并非如此。
考虑到我们特意花了两小时车程,还付费预订了连夜住宿只为来观看这场表演,这次经历实在令人大失所望。
马特洛克本身是个非常迷人的小村庄,绝对值得一游,只可惜……那些灯光效果糟透了。显然达不到宣传图片中所展示的效果,也满足不了人们的期待。说实话,如果事先知道会是这样,我根本不会专程来看这场演出。
