ROME, Feb. 10 - They continue to get visitors in museums and archaeological sites. In fact, according to the latest report of the Directorate General of the Ministry of Culture's General Affairs, reported in November, visitors decreased by 2.70% and 7.19% of collections over the same month last year.
Tuscany, which recorded 5,255,065 visitors in 2008, fell to 4,973,764 in 2009.
Lazio from 11,538,047 to 11,018,423, from 1,229,938 to 1,367,638 Lombardy and the Veneto from 923,556 to 879,770. Just to name a few.
''This means that the crisis involves domestic tourism, but also that of foreigners - said the general secretary of Uil Cultural Heritage, Gianfranco Cerasoli -. Should review the policy and the costs of inputs to ensure that a family of 4 should not spend less than € 48 to visit a museum or archaeological site. E 'need to increase the times museums and archaeological areas in anticipation of the opening hours as is already happening in certain places, creating openings for exceptional all indicators tell us that young people, according to a survey of the National Research Council, are concerned, as an alternative to the pub to visit the museums in times night but they must have flexible hours with the organization of exhibitions and events for their age.''
''The museum buildings - continues the union - to draw the attention of potential visitors should offer tickets and cultural offerings to different costs between different periods along the lines of the case for instance for cultural tourism that sees lower prices hotels and transport at certain times Last year almost a minute. So no more tickets at a fixed cost - he concludes - but different tickets based on date, time and attendance up to provide free periods such as during the period from November to March each year''.
to add that I feel is not just a matter of hours or costs, many museums are cryptic, poorly accessible and not at all interactive and most of the archaeological areas are left to their own and without any support or educational information. : (((
