点评:We arrived here late in the afternoon so we had missed the guided tour and only had around 2hrs to look around the place. Staff at the main gate were not very friendly just took our money and told us where to park. There is no map and very little signage to follow so you are left to wander around yourself . The whole town was deserted many years ago and the desert is slowly reclaiming it. It is set in the middle of nowhere in a desert and it must have been quite a bleak place to live. It was fascinating to wander around the buildings and explore all of the rooms, but make sue you wear a hat and suncream as it gets very hot and there is little shade. You can see why its popular for social media followers , as the sand, broken buildings and light and shade makes for some incredible images. There are two main lines of general work buildings and then a large recreation hall which has been refurbished and saved from the ravages of the desert . Here you will find a fascinating exhibition about life in the mining town, the main sports hall where a lot of social events took place and a bowling alley. There is also a small gift shop here and a cafe but it was closed when we got there and there was nowhere else to get a drink sadly. We loved our visit but a small sign on each of the buildings telling you what it was used for would improve the visit for those not on a guided tour. Please note that when you leave on the back of the ticket office , which you don't see as you drive in only as you drive out, is a large sign telling you that an audio guide is available. This would have improved our visit so much and a shame the sign is not visible to guests as they come in , or the staff inform you of it.
Highly recommend a visit
翻译:我们下午晚些时候才到这里,所以错过了导游,只有大约 2 小时的时间四处看看。大门口的工作人员不太友好,只是收了钱,告诉我们停车的地方。这里没有地图,标识也很少,所以你只能自己四处闲逛。整个城镇很多年前就荒无人烟了,沙漠正在慢慢地将其重新占领。它坐落在荒无人烟的沙漠中,想必以前居住的地方相当荒凉。在建筑周围漫步,探索所有的房间,这真是令人着迷,但一定要戴上帽子和涂上防晒霜,因为天气非常炎热,而且几乎没有阴凉处。你可以看到它为什么受到社交媒体粉丝的欢迎,因为沙子、破败的建筑以及光影构成了一些令人难以置信的照片。这里有两条主要的综合工作建筑线,然后是一个大型娱乐大厅,它经过翻新,免受沙漠的破坏。在这里,你会发现一个关于矿业小镇生活的迷人展览、一个举办过许多社交活动的主体育馆和一个保龄球馆。这里还有一家小礼品店和一家咖啡馆,但我们到的时候它已经关门了,很遗憾没有其他地方可以喝一杯。我们很喜欢这次参观,但是每栋建筑上都有一个小标志,告诉你它的用途,这会让那些没有参加导游的游客的参观体验更好。请注意,当你离开售票处的后面时,你开车进去时看不到,只有开车出来时才能看到,有一个大标志告诉您可以使用语音导游。这会让我们的参观体验大大改善,遗憾的是,客人进来时看不到这个标志,或者工作人员不会告诉你。
强烈推荐参观
