今年在美國國家公園的免費(fèi)日你能看到什么

The United States has so many national parks and protected wilderness areas to explore, but some of those spots have entrance fees or activities fees. While the fees help to support the sites, they can sometimes sting the wallet.

美國有許多國家公園和受保護(hù)的荒野地區(qū)可供探索，但有些地方收取門票或活動(dòng)費(fèi)。雖然這些費(fèi)用有助于支持這些網(wǎng)站，但有時(shí)也會(huì)讓錢包變癟。

Luckily, sites managed by agencies like the National Parks Service, the National Wildlife Refuge and even the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers offer fee-free days so visitors can take in the wonders of our country at the price that works for any family budget.

幸運(yùn)的是，由國家公園管理局、國家野生動(dòng)物保護(hù)區(qū)、甚至美國陸軍工程兵團(tuán)等機(jī)構(gòu)管理的景點(diǎn)都提供免費(fèi)參觀日，這樣游客就能以適合任何家庭預(yù)算的價(jià)格欣賞我們國家的奇觀。

Each agency has different fee-free days and stipulations for what that applies to, so scroll down to see when fee-free days are for these agencies and recommendations on where you can spend the day getting the most bang for your buck this year.

每個(gè)代理機(jī)構(gòu)都有不同的免費(fèi)日和適用范圍的規(guī)定，所以向下滾動(dòng)查看這些代理機(jī)構(gòu)的免費(fèi)日是什么時(shí)候，以及今年你可以在哪里花一天的時(shí)間獲得最大的經(jīng)濟(jì)效益。

U.S. National Parks Service

美國國家公園管理局

Only 110 of the 419 parks managed by the NPS charge entrance fees in the first place, meaning plenty of the sites are free every day. Entrance fee-free days, however, offer a great opportunity to explore old favorites or discover a new wonder, like Isle Royal National Park, an island smack in the middle of Lake Superior in Michigan as you can see in the photo above. Hiking, camping and scuba diving are just some of the activities available at this remote locale.

國家公園管理局管理的419個(gè)公園中，只有110個(gè)首先收取門票，這意味著很多公園每天都是免費(fèi)的。入口免費(fèi)的日子，然而，提供了一個(gè)偉大的機(jī)會(huì)來探索舊的最愛或發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)新的奇跡，如皇家島國家公園，在密歇根州的蘇必利爾湖中部的一個(gè)島嶼，你可以在上面的照片中看到。徒步旅行、露營和水肺潛水只是這個(gè)偏遠(yuǎn)地區(qū)的一些活動(dòng)。

Lassen Volcanic National Park

拉森火山國家公園

Lassen Volcanic National Park in California allows visitors to explore painted sand dunes, volcanoes, hydro-thermal areas and boiling mud pits. It's also a park that doesn't receive as many visitors as some other better-known parks. You can hike through the park along 150 miles of trails, or simply take a driving tour along the 30-mile Lassen Volcanic National Park Highway.

加州拉森火山國家公園允許游客探索彩色沙丘、火山、水熱區(qū)和沸騰的泥漿坑。這個(gè)公園接待的游客也不像其他一些知名公園那么多。你可以沿著150英里的步道徒步穿過公園，也可以沿著30英里長的拉森火山國家公園高速公路駕車游覽。

Thomas Edison National Historical Park

There's more to the National Parks Service than the great outdoors. If you're in New Jersey, consider visiting the Thomas Edison National Historical Park. This NPS-managed site preserves 20,000 square feet of Thomas Edison's laboratories and the Glenmont estate where Edison lived. You also can take in a bit of movie history by visiting the Black Maria, the studio where some of the first moving pictures in American history were filmed.

國家公園的服務(wù)遠(yuǎn)不止于戶外。如果你在新澤西，可以考慮參觀托馬斯愛迪生國家歷史公園。這個(gè)由國家公園管理局管理的地方保存著2萬平方英尺的托馬斯·愛迪生實(shí)驗(yàn)室和愛迪生曾經(jīng)居住過的格倫蒙特莊園。你也可以通過參觀“黑瑪利亞”攝影棚來了解一點(diǎn)電影歷史，美國歷史上最早的一些電影就是在這個(gè)攝影棚拍攝的。

Dry Tortugas National Park

干托圖加斯國家公園

At Dry Tortugas National Park in Florida, you can get both history and the outdoors in the same park. Getting to this park requires special planning due to its isolated location, but it's worth the effort to see Fort Jefferson, go snorkeling and camp in a unique part of the NPS.

在佛羅里達(dá)的干托圖加斯國家公園，你可以在同一個(gè)公園里看到歷史和戶外。由于它的位置偏僻，要到達(dá)這個(gè)公園需要特別的規(guī)劃，但值得一看的是杰佛遜堡，去浮潛和露營在一個(gè)獨(dú)特的NPS的一部分。

As a reminder, the fee wavier is just for the entrance fee to a national park site. All amenity or user fees, like camping, boat launching or special tours, are still in place on fee-free days.

提醒一下，這個(gè)費(fèi)用只是國家公園的門票。所有設(shè)施或用戶費(fèi)用，如露營、乘船下水或特殊旅游，在免費(fèi)的日子仍然存在。
