这一带的建筑都是白色为主,所以红色的史密森学会就分外的亮眼。参观也是免费的。一进门左手边就是纪念品处,可以在里面挑选送给朋友的礼物,以前来过的朋友推荐说在这里买最划算。
I will say the real exhibits have moved out of this building but it is the most identifiable structure with the Smithsonian name. It addition the "Castle" as it is known is an impressive structure on the Mall. Great for pictures.
Not much to see here, perfect for a quick visit as you stroll down the Mall. I actually think this place is one of the best "bathroom break" locations as you are walking down the mall or want a break from the heat in summer time.
我的四个孩子在航天和航空展区待了好几个小时。自然历史展区的动物们很逼真,美国历史展区是我最喜欢看的。
You can start your tour here and plan the rest of the museums. We stopped here at the end of our trip and happened to picked up a brochure that discussed a new service being offered for transportation via the Circular around the mall to the Smithsonian Museums. It only costs $1 per person as of March 2015 and I’m sure it will be more efficient if you are interested in the museums and monuments around the National Mall. This service is also discussed in the Visitor Survival Guide offered on the Smithsonian Institute Website under Tips for visiting.
一定要来,但我会建议尽量选择淡季的工作日过来。不然人会非常多。如果可以的话我建议别去自助餐厅,价格太贵了。
We found restrooms, food, and a place to warm-up. The displays are interesting for a quick perusal. The building has its own beauty.
我非常佩服这个机构,巨资捐了美国首都城中心一大片顶级博物馆,全部门票免费,让一代代人感受知识。最喜欢是自然历史博物馆,动物标本很全,值得一看。
A significant part was closed for renovations/preparing for new exhibits, but still enjoyable. Lots of cool transportation, military, sound recording and food exhibits. And of course, seeing the "Star Spangled Banner" is a "must see." That was about the only place in the whole Museum where photos weren't allowed to be taken. (Perfectly understand why.)
just a great place what can be said about the mecca of history and its collectionstoo good and very educative
