Whenever I visit a new tourist spot, I like to visit the historically famous places and also other entertaining places too. I like to visit museums, castles, forts, beaches and also theme parks..I never miss anything. But my friends do not like to visit the museums..How about you? Do you like to visit museums when you visit a new place?

I love museums... i majored history when i was in college because i am very fascinated about the story behind all the important aspects in our society... and the museum is a great way to understand how people lived in the past... and will live in the future... One of my dreams is to visit the most famous museum in the world... and that is the Louvre in Paris... those paintings and sculptures form the great masters... i hope i will be able to realize this dream soon...

wow..Being a history graduate, you know the importance of museums..Museums are really a great way to learn about the culture and life of the people..My best wishes to you to visit the Louvre Museum in Paris. I think the original painting of MonaLisa by Leonardo da Vinci is at the Loure Museum at Paris.

yes, i try to visit the museum. It is something that is very much interesting to me. It also reflects so much about the past culture, history of the place. I have almost visited all museums in all cities i visited.

I'll visit the museums after I find out about what the place is like in the present. I like knowing the past but only after I know the living--what the place has become, and why. Then I can appreciate the past.

I like to visit local museums, they give me a flavor for the place. I also visit garden centers, I like to know what different plants are grown in people's gardens in different parts of the world.
