RE: Visiting The Natural Gas Museum - History And Minerals

in Pinmapple11 months ago

You really have a keen interest in museums. It is "the richest place", a storehouse of invaluable knowledge, and should be the target of many parties, especially those who are thirsty for knowledge.
Your posts about various museums are very rich in explanations and very enlightening; we become aware of how our civilization was built.

In my area, museums are increasingly empty of visitors; only a few groups of school students go on excursions there; the rest are people busy with their smart phones.
The saddest thing is the lower maintenance budget; they have been wrong to assume that a museum cannot make money.

Sort:  

I do as it's a good place to pick up some knowledge and see what you can't see elsewhere.

It is sad to know what museums are not popular and not visited in some parts of the world. With the technology we have today, it's easy to check things online, but it's not the same as seeing things in real life.

Now, would you believe me if I would say, most of the museums and exhibitions I visit are free? The thing is, if you don't make the entrance free, then how do you expect people to come visit and learn? In my country, most of the municipalities are sponsoring these museums as these are under their care and you don't have to pay. Which is the greatest thing in the world.
