More and more people are relying on the private car as their major means of transportation. Describe some of the problems over-reliance on cars can cause, and suggest at least one possible solution.

Tourists are generally drawn to museums and historical locations when visiting new countries.

However

, records

have shown

show

local people’s low attendance at these attractions. Some explanations will be put forward before solutions can be drawn to tackle

this

problem. There are several reasons as to why tourists,

instead

of the local people, come to museums and historical places.

First

, these locations can provide visitors with a comprehensive overview of the traditions in the particular locality they are situated.

As a result

,

such

destinations are generally more appealing to the newcomers than to the locals, those without the need to familiarise themselves with the traditional values of the region.

Moreover

, because the layout of museums and historical houses is likely to remain unchanged through years, they can be visually unattractive to the local inhabitants, who may have been to these sites for at least once in their younger years. Several measures can be prompted to promote locals’ attendance rate at buildings for historic relics and museums. The main solution is to change the public’s perception of

such

places as sites for only monotonous activities. Should civic events including weddings, anniversaries and concerts be allowed to be held in these locations, they would attract substantial public attention to historical values. Another resolution is that historians and preservationists should be featured more frequently on the media, with their articles on the tremendous worth of museums and historical remains. To conclude, historical areas and museums can be uninteresting for local citizens because they can be too familiar with the culture that these places depict. To better

this

, there should be more media coverage on historical assets, and

also

more open-door policies to use

such

locations as spots for more public-oriented activities.
