Many museums and historical sites are mainly visited by tourists but not local people. Why this is a case and this can be done to attract more local people visit these places?

Without a doubt, there have always been local museums to preserve cultural and historical values of a locality.

However

, it is widely recognized that places like museums and historical sites are increasingly marginalized by other amusement venues. Reality proves that mostly international visitors are seen in local museums

of the local people. While

development can be attributed to a number of reasons, I believe that the decline in local visitors to museums could be addressed by several viable solutions. On the one hand, the driving factors behind the declining attendance of local people at museums are definite.

First

and foremost, as the price for museum tickets is often prohibitively exorbitant, local residents may be unwilling to pay for one, especially when they may already know what are exhibited inside.

This

is,

, not the case for international tourists. Since some among them travel with the aim of gaining more insight into the cultural and historical heritage of localities, they are more inclined to afford an entry ticket to

where their quests should be fulfilled. Another rationale for the indifference towards museums and historical sites from the locals is that their interests in these venues are insufficiently stimulated. It could be said that the lack of events held in local museums is mainly to blame for how less and less local residents visiting museums.

On the other hand

, I am convinced that there are still a few ways in which local museums and historical sites could reclaim their reigns. For one, entry tickets to these amusement venues should be offered at a more reasonable price point.
