Lincoln Guildhall的点评
点评:I've been to Lincoln many times and have visited most of the historic sites and thought I had a good prospective on the city of Lincoln until I visited the Guildhall.
It began with being greeted by our guide outside the front door of the Guildhall who gave us a few quick insite into the location which is where the Roman wall, that surrounded the city, once stood.
Then we were lead into the Guildhall and for the next 80 minutes we were treated to the unique history of governing a city that was extremely important, especially in medieval times. There were portraits of Kings and Queens who visited Lincoln over time, presented with wonderful stories related to each visit.
There is also a room, the old jail, that holds gifts to the city that cover hundreds of years along with the Charters presented to the city by most of the Kings and Queens over Lincolns long history.
Our guide was fantastic and encourage us to ask questions which made the tour even more personal.
And, its FREE!! Best historical value in Lincoln.
翻译:我去过林肯很多次,也参观过大部分历史遗迹,自认为对林肯这座城市已经有了相当的了解,直到我参观了市政厅。
首先,我们的导游在市政厅门口迎接了我们,并简要介绍了这里——曾经环绕这座城市的罗马城墙所在地。
随后,我们被引至市政厅,在接下来的80分钟里,我们聆听了这座城市独特的历史,了解了它如何治理这座在中世纪时期尤为重要的城市。厅内陈列着历代到访林肯的国王和王后的画像,并配有与每次到访相关的精彩故事。
此外,还有一个房间,即旧监狱,里面收藏着数百年来人们赠予这座城市的礼物,以及林肯漫长历史中大多数国王和王后授予这座城市的特许状。
我们的导游非常棒,他鼓励我们提问,让整个参观过程更加生动有趣。
而且,它是免费的!林肯最超值的历史景点!
