Amid increasing industrialization and modernization, preserving history and culture has become more paramount, prompting more people to visiting historical museums and heritage landmarks. While this trend offers several noteworthy benefits, I would argue that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
To begin with, there are some drawbacks to visiting these sites. Chief among these is limits in finance. Clearly, some international historical or cultural places are quite extravagant to afford, preventing individuals to expose to novel insights. For instance, the total cost you have to pay for a trip to the Louvre museum in France to see the Mona Lisa is estimated around over 10 million VND, including a plane ticket and a museum one. This obstacle renders individuals unable to attain hands-on experience easily. Additionally, these places are inclined to attract hordes of tourists nowadays, making their experience unpleasant. However, the financial barrier only arises in the context of overseas exhibitions and sites.
Despite these demerits, the benefits are more far-reaching. One of the primary advantages is the attainment to practical knowledge the visit brings about. Discovering historical displays and heritage sites, such as National History Museum or Hoi An ancient town, provides people with various and in-depth insights into nation’s history, reinforcing their strong appreciation toward their ancestors and natural privileges. Furthermore, this tendency exerts integral impacts on tourism. To clarify, most of these places are regarded as tourism attraction for both domestic and foreign tourists, encouraging local residents to start economic activities there; and, consequently, not only can the nation’s history be known as by more people, but it can also bring considerable income for the local.
In conclusion, although the arrival of historical exhibitions and heritage sites are not without certain merits, I would contend that its merits, particular regarding knowledge and tourism should not be overlooked.
