Do you enjoy visiting
a museum? Did you ever make a plan before a visit? Every museum must have something
that attracts you. And there are many possible ways to enjoy yourself in a
museum.
If you follow these
steps below, you'll know what is worth seeing and doing, so that you can make
the most of your time at the museum.
Decide what museum you
will visit. There are so many different kinds of museums and you first need to
find one that you like. It's easy for you to choose one and start an enjoyable
visit!
Do some research
online. Every museum now has a website which allows you to look through the information
about it. On the website, you may look for such things as:
●The
exhibits—See what is on show at the museum at all
times, and what special exhibitions are held for a short time.
●The
history of the museum —There will be very interesting
stories about the exhibits and the benefactors(捐贈者).
That can make your visit more interesting.
●Cost,
food or storage—It's important to know how much the
visit will cost. You have to decide whether or not you can eat there. You might
also need to find out about transportation needs, as well as storage for coats,
bags, etc.
●Learn
at least one thing on your visit. It is always good to take away something new
from your visit.
●Plan
breaks into your visit. When you walk around, standing here and studying
exhibits there, you may become very tired. So it is important to take breaks. A
break is a good opportunity for you to think of what you have seen and what
else you might want to do in the museum.
●Take
a friend or two. Visiting museums is always a lot more fun when you are with
someone else. You can talk over what you're seeing. A friend also brings
another way of thinking when you talk about the exhibits.
