Many museums and historical sites are mostly visited by foreign tourists, but not local people. Why do you think it happens? What can be done to attract local visitors to these sites?
Every country always has interesting place destinations, namely
museums
and historical sites. Unfortunately, most of the visitors
come from foreign travellers and barely from denizens. This
essay aims to investigate the causes of this
and also
put forward a number of solutions.
There are many reasons why museums
and ancient sites are full of foreign tourists
than local tourists
. First and foremost, the staff treats overseas tourists
more exclusively than local visitors
, such
as special exhibitions. Usually, the staff accompany foreigners strolling around museums
and explain everything. Furthermore
, the entrance ticket fee is more costly than other destinations like the water park, according to
local people
. Eventually, local people
prefer to spend their leisure time going to the water park and it only costs a hundred rupiah. The unaffordable price also
gives the impression that the authorities are only interested in attracting foreign tourists
.
Authorities can do various things to increase the interest of local people
. Firstly
, they can make special offers for local visitors
, such
as a special package ticket for groups or involve denizens in certain events. As a result
, nearby visitors
would definitely try to visit monuments together with
their friends or family and they feel more appreciated. Also
, authorities could cooperate with local schools for one of the object studies. Many students would be curious and want to get to know more about some ancient stuff, so the percentage they visit monuments and museums
increases.
In conclusion, the reasons behind the lack of visitors
from local people
include unfair treatment and unaffordable ticket fees, and possible solutions are releasing special offers for residents, as well as
working together with
educational institutions.Submitted by helainhye2 on
