Some people think that museum should be enjoyable place to entertain people while others believe that the purpose of them is to educate.discuss both views and give your opinion..

There has been a controversy about whether
museums
should be enjoyable or educational. I think
museums
can be entertaining and educational, and my reasons will be explained in the following paragraphs.
First
, they serve as a recorder of
history
. As we know, there
are
hundreds and thousands of all sorts of
museums
around the world; some
are
national
museums
that have the most precious antiques; some
are
new
museums
,
such
as technical
museums
.
However
, all of them play a similar role, which is recording
history
;
hence
, visitors can understand the progress of
history
by visiting these
museums
. Take The Palace
Museum
as an example. It is famous for its valuable antiques, which record the development of Chinese
history
, and they can open visitors' eyes.
Second
, the content of particular
museums
is appealing. It's expected that different
museums
serve different purposes; some
are
historical
museums
, and some
are
new media
museums
. Take me as an example. I have been to a technical
museum
in Berlin, and it was an eye-opener for me. It didn't only teach people scientific knowledge; it was
also
an entertaining place.
For example
, there was a
kids
' club exclusively for
kids
. During the weekend, parents can take their children to
this
museum
;
kids
can play in the
kids
' club, and parents can enjoy the artwork here. In my opinion,
museums
can serve these two purposes.
For instance
, I have read an article about a
museum
which held a treasure hunt activity while they were having an exhibition about Pharaohs.
This
museum
was popular during that period of time because children could participate in that engrossing activity, and adults could enjoy the breath-taking antiques. In conclusion, I believe
museums
can be entertaining and educational.
