How to prevent uncivilized behavior of tourists when archaeological museums are open?

On April 28th, 2022, Shaanxi Archaeological Museum, the first archaeological museum in China, was opened to the public.

What is an archaeological museum? The Archaeological Museum is a museum that shows archaeology to everyone. At the same time, the cultural relics displayed in the archaeological museum are all excavated by archaeology, not the cultural relics that can be handed down from generation to generation, collected, traded and donated like the historical museum.

Therefore, the opening of archaeological museums is one of the important ways for ordinary people to deeply understand cultural relics and related history, and it is also a new form to show the whole chain of archaeological excavation, archaeological research, cultural relics protection and exhibition education at close range. Therefore, preventing the uncivilized behavior of tourists, protecting cultural relics and making good use of cultural relics are one of the powerful measures to make this archaeological treasure spread for a long time, and it is also a common problem faced by many museums in China.

1, increase publicity. The development of any new thing is inseparable from the synergy of external factors. Good publicity can regulate behavior, improve quality, influence behavior, increase positive publicity, conduct negative education in time, and guide tourists to correct their values and behave in a civilized way through various ways and means.

2. Appropriate legislative restrictions. Appropriate laws, regulations and codes of conduct can play a deterrent role. People are lazy. Without relevant legislative norms, they will constantly try to break through the bottom line thinking, and there will be many uncivilized behaviors, which will affect others. Therefore, legislation must be strict, violators must be prosecuted, law enforcement must be clear, and a healthy and up-to-date visit atmosphere must be created.

3. On-site standard guidance. On-the-spot norms guide education, and the disciplinary effect of standing up and correcting it is more effective than informing and criticizing afterwards. Normative behavior can include eye-catching warning signs, active guidance of staff, real-time display of display screen, etc. So as to establish an orderly, civilized and friendly new era fashion of archaeological museums.

4. Increase the cost of trial and error. Significantly increasing the trial and error cost of uncivilized behavior of tourists is also one of the important ways to standardize the corresponding behavior. Punishment is not an end, but a means. Through the public exposure of uncivilized behavior, the prohibition of second visits, and the information files of uncivilized behavior in various regions of the country, the quality of civilized behavior of visitors to archaeological museums will be further improved.

In fact, the uncivilized behavior of tourists exists more or less in major tourist attractions at home and abroad, which is inevitable and unstoppable. The only thing we can do is to regulate their behavior through various measures and ways and reduce the corresponding uncivilized phenomenon. The most important thing is the tourists themselves, and the internal factors are the decisive factors. With the improvement of their own quality and moral awareness, coupled with a good and healthy atmosphere for visiting, uncivilized behavior will become less and less.
