Many museums charge for admission while others are free. Do you think the advantages of charging people for admission to museums outweigh the disadvantages?

Charging
people
when they enter a public place is a great source of income for the government.
Though

Although
show examples
some
museums
have been issuing the public an entrance fee while many others are free of
charge
. So,
this
has been always a subject of debate whether letting
people
visit
museums
for free, or for a fee. Those
museums
that
charge
people
have brought some benefits to the government. They are a great source of income. Though we can see that some of

account for a noticeable proportion of the GDP.
In addition
,
such
museums
can preserve their collection of statues and artefacts, while having few
visitors
, because, more
visitors
mean more danger to
such
valuable stuff.
For instance
, certain
museums
have not been open to the public and were only open to researchers.
On the other hand
, there are some significant disadvantages to
museums
that have put a fee for their
visitors
. They usually attract fewer
visitors
compared to the other
museums
.
Consequently
, attracting no
visitors
means they have failed in their task, because,
museums
tend to have
visitors
in order to conduct information to the public.
On the contrary
, free of
charge
museums
have the advantage of widely educating
people
.
For example
, guides who work at
museums
can be great instructors for
visitors
. In conclusion,
although
certain
museums
that
charge
for admission are a great source of income for governments, they have failed in their task that was attracting
visitors
. In my opinion, all
museums
must have a public area for
people
to visit without paying for admission, while charging
people
for having a visit to their important artefacts.
However
, it's not applicable to all
museums
, but I'm sure more
museums
will be thinking more deeply about
this
in the near future.
