Some believe museums should entertain people, while others believe their purpose is to educate. Discuss both views and give your own opinion

It is often argued that
museums
should educate
people
rather than entertain
people
. I will discuss both views but in my opinion, I disagree that
museums
should only educate the public with

interesting topics
such
as history, space, etc., rather than entertain

.
Firstly
, many
people
debated that
museums
should be solely used for education. An Exhibition in a
museum
should be able to tell visitors something that they did not know before.
This
means that the
museum
must explain what is it that they are showcasing.
this
can be done in many ways. Usually, they employ guides to talk to their visitors, while some other
museums
use headsets for the
visitor
to listen to commentary about the exhibition.
Thus
, the exhibition can teach the
visitor
about important things
such
as history, science, etc.
On the other hand
, a
museum

tourist attractions, and their purpose is to showcase interesting objects and at the same time educate the
visitor
. If the
museum
only showcases "educational" content and not much interesting stuff,

museum
should be able to do two of those ; offering an important, educational subject and an enjoyable experience so that
people
can have fun and learn something new at the same time
