Unique, but a Little Dull
The American Pigeon Museum & Library的点评
点评:I dropped into the American Pigeon Museum on a Route 66 trip. I like weird museums so this had some appeal. The museum is free to enter and donations are accepted. The museum covers the history of pigeons as kept by humans. It includes pigeon racing and carrier pigeons in the wars, for example. The history is fascinating, but the museum lacks compelling exhibits. A lot of it is stuff I could read online. There are some artifacts that are interesting, but this is a sign heavy museum. I believe there are sometimes live pigeons here, but not all the time. The cages were empty when I visited. Overall, I would put this on the skip list. It's fine, but I would only recommend it to locals. For Route 66ers or other travelers, you can probably find attractions that are a better use of your time.
翻译:我在沿66号公路旅行时顺道去了美国鸽子博物馆。我喜欢那种风格奇特的博物馆,因此这里对我很有吸引力。博物馆免费入场,也接受捐款。它讲述了人类驯养鸽子的历史,比如鸽子赛跑以及战争中用于通信的信鸽。这段历史确实很有趣,但博物馆缺乏引人入胜的展品;很多内容其实我都能在网上读到。虽然有一些藏品还算有趣,但整体上这是一家以文字说明为主的博物馆。我觉得这里有时会有活鸽子,但并非一直都有。我去的时候笼子是空的。总的来说,我会把这里列入“可跳过”的景点名单。它还不错,但只推荐给当地人。对于沿着66号公路旅行的游客或其他旅行者来说,应该能找到更值得花时间去的景点吧。
