British Library, London

伦敦的大英图书馆曾经是马克思刻苦攻读的地方,不过那是在原址,也就是现在的大英博物馆。今天的大英图书馆是全新建筑,但如果你要在此做学问,一样可以免费使用其阅读室,不过需要确定有你要的资料,并和工作人员交谈进行确认意图。所以对于游客而言,在此阅读并不是很实际的事情,大家还是当景点参观一下就好。当地学生通常也只是用这里作为免费上网和自习的地方而已。

Street entertainment at Covent Garden

Covent Garden is licensed for street entertainment, and performers audition for timetabled slots in a number of venues around the market, including the North Hall, West Piazza, and South Hall Courtyard. The courtyard space is dedicated to classical music only. There are street performances at Covent Garden Market every day of the year, except Christmas Day. Shows run throughout the day and are about 30 minutes in length.

英国伦敦的Covent Garden地区国际游客众多,所以有很多街头艺人在此表演赚钱。他们的收入来自观众的捐款,所以会使出浑身解数尽量吸引更多观众,留住富裕观众,让尽可能多观众一直留到节目结束的打赏环节。通常打赏5英镑即可。

街头艺人表演过程中会观察哪些观众有钱,然后会挑选个别观众参与表演,目的主要是将他们和家人一直留在那里直到节目结束打赏艺人。中东海湾石油国家和东亚人最容易被挑中参与节目。如果艺人要借用你钞票,那你给出的钱最终会被你乖乖打赏给他的,所以准备好相应金额钞票很重要,5英镑钞票是不行的,最少要是10英镑钞票,如果你只有20英镑或50英镑钞票,也会被拿去。

街头艺人生意最好的时候是夏季。天冷的时候就很难聚集观众。

West Piazza:
西广场空间十分开阔,每场表演都吸引很多的观众,是Covent Garden最主要的表演场所。
