Museums and other historical sites seem to be less attractive to local people than to tourists. This essay
intends to delve into some reasons why this is occurring, and put forward some solutions to kindle the
interest of local people in visiting these places.
The first reason is due to the fact that the local people take these places for granted. They think that these
places are not running away anywhere, and so they will see them sooner or later. What happens is, that
the time seldom comes, when they take the time out of their hectic schedule to see these places. On the
other hand, tourists who come there are on a holiday, and their main motive is visiting these historic places
and museums. For instance, recently, I visited Hyderabad as a tourist and went to see Ramoji Film City,
which is the biggest Film City in the whole world, spread over 5000 acres of land. My relatives who are
staying in Hyderabad have never been there once. When ltold them that it is a must-see place, they
decided to visit it with their children.
Secondly, nothing new is added to these places over the years and so local people who have been there
once, do not wish to frequent these places again and again. These places do not intrigue the locals so they
do not feel nlotivated to visit regularly. ln other words, the renewals of existing exhibits, or the
organization of new programs and events are few and far between. Furthermore, museums and historical
sites are not cheap to visit. ln fact, to get admission to these places, visitors are often required to buy
expensive tickets.
ln order to spur up more interest of local people in coming to museums, a number of ways can be
employed. School trips could be organized for children to enjoy these places with their friends. Passes for
entry to these museums and historical sites could be arranged for local people so that it doesn't cut a hole
in their pocket every time they visit them. A day could be fixed every month when the entry to the
museum is made free. For example, on every first Tuesday of the month, the entry to the Houston Museum
of Natural Science is free, so there is a great rush of local people on that day
To conclude, many reasons can be given as to why local people lose their enthusiasm for museums and
places of historical importance. However, the revival of these places is within our grasp should proper
actions be taken.
