During the trip to the UK, we came to the hometown of Peter Rabbit in Bowness, a small town in the Lake District of England. This little rabbit from the British countryside has healed countless people with its cuteness. The souvenir shops in the town and the Beatrix Potter Museum are all places to check in for Peter Rabbit fans.
When you come to the small town of Windermere in the Lake District of England, you must check in at Peter Rabbit World, where you can appreciate the rich fairy tale world created by a British female writer. People who have never read the fairy tale may not feel anything when they come here, but they think the rabbit is really cute. You need to buy a ticket to visit the theater inside. The gift shop has a variety of peripheral products that are hard to put down.
The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction Museum uses "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" as its theme and displays interesting scenes from the story. The beautiful scenery of Lake Windermere also inspired the famous children's writer Beatrix Potter, and "The Story of Peter Rabbit" came from this. It's about a 20-minute walk from the main road towards Bowness-in-Windermere, or you can get there by bus. The entrance is not very obvious on the right side of the road. Highlights of visiting the museum: As soon as you enter this museum, you feel like you are in a dream world in a fairy tale book. Through a five-minute short film (available in Chinese version), Porter and her story are introduced. Through the 3D scenes, sound effects and scents in the film, the famous animals in the story will appear vividly before your eyes. Through the interactive screens in the museum, you can learn about each story, and all have Chinese explanations. It is a pity that our generation does not have this cultural influence. I haven’t read many fairy tales since I was a child. Walk through it roughly to learn about the author's life and main fairy tales. Take a final look at the small outdoor garden.
This is the birthplace of famous fairy tales, the author's former residence, enter here, no matter adults and children, immediately silent in these vivid small animal world, most scenes have been introduced in detail, there are Chinese explanations, even if you have not seen this fairy tale, you can also understand 1, 2. The Pavilion is not big enough. One hour is enough for play, photography and shopping. Tickets are not cost-effective. There is also a tea bar downstairs. The price-performance ratio of afternoon tea set is relatively high. You can visit it when you have time.
Windmill Town is also the home of Peter Rabbit. The town is full of Peter Rabbit. It may appear on the signs of souvenir shops, bookstores, buses, mailboxes, road signs and maps in your hands. The town's Lake Windmill is said to be Britain's largest natural lake, where teachers teach children kayaking.
If you like the stories of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter, you must come here. All 23 stories about Peter Rabbit are brought to life in a three-dimensional world. Here, you can see the scenes in the stories, hear the dialogues in the stories, and even smell the smells in the stories.
This rabbit is really lovely. Besides the beautiful scenery of the lake area, it is also famous for its author. Visit Beatrix Potter's rabbit and his friend's fairy tale world, drink her family's afternoon tea, and say they closed too early.
