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

Museums

are educational places filled with a range of artefacts and elements from the ancient history of ancestors. People expand horizons and gain knowledge by visiting

such

places.

Nevertheless

, these days, it is obligatory to pay an entrance fee to enter some

museums

.

Although

compulsory payment has some disadvantages, I believe that the benefits of that phenomenon outweigh them.

First

of all, it is obvious that the cost of tickets can be a problem for low-income people. They cannot afford to pay for

admission

, and

they lose the opportunity to gain useful information and knowledge.

Secondly

, as we know, almost everybody craves free stuff.

That is

why the charge for

admission

discourages them from visiting spiritually enriching places like

museums

, and

this

reduces the desire to explore the history and culture of their countries.

Moreover

numerous amount of merits.

Firstly

, income will help to maintain museum items in proper condition. To be precise, all the ancient relics and valuable artefacts require careful handling and restoration as they deteriorate.

Secondly

, money is required for museum business needs.

For instance

, electricity bills, room rent, expensive equipment, employers' salaries and many others.

In addition

, money is the main basis for good visuals and quality museum content. Even from my past experiences,

museums

with mandatory pay

admission

were much better in terms of equipment, facilities, staff, and relics.

Moreover

, they had even a canteen. To summarize,

museums

make people spiritually wealthier and more intelligent. Because of that,

although

the charge for

admission

causes some disadvantages, payment is really required for the successful work of

museums

.
