In todays complex world, people tend to argue and debate on many topics and museum is also one of them. Many people debates if museums are entertainment venue or educational venue. In my personal opinion, museums are both filled with entertainment and educational.
On one hand, the main role of a museum is to entertain people because it is a tourist attraction spot and their main objective is to exhibit interesting collections of historical objects that many people would like to know about. People would become bored listening about these historical monuments and instruments on ‘youtube’ or ‘tiktok.’ They would prefer to observe those objects themselves in person while getting entertained with stage performances about the country’s historical stories. For instance, with holding and entertainment exhibition in the National Museum, they would gain more tourist visiting and gain more in terms of economically and popularity.
On the other hand, there are other people arguing that museums should only serve for education purpose only. This is due to, museums would teach visitors on country’s history and providing more detailed information about the things they did not know previously. For example, some museums have professional guides to talk and explain to visitors about the aspects in the museum which plays an important role in teaching people about history, culture and science.
In nutshell, as for my opinion museums can be equally both entertaining and providing education at the same time. They should offer bother interesting enjoyable activities and provide some educational fun as we all know that learning in a fun way is the best way.
