GECRPH-18 Readings in Philippine History

MODULE 12 ASSIGNMENT 1
Why visiting historical sites, shrines, landmarks, and museums important in
the study of history? How has your previous experience of visiting a specific
landmark or museum helped you in understanding of a historical fact or
event.

Visiting historical sites, shrines, landmarks, and museums can take you
back to a past era. Museums and historic sites give you a better
information than what you would see on the internet, or even in many
legit books. Visiting historical sites can not only enrich our understanding
of a particular historical event, but it can also allow us to engage with
history in a way that provides greater local contextualization and a
visceral connection to the people who lived through it. It is important in
the study of history because they are the only proof we have from our
ancestors. Through them, we were able to know and discover their way
of life in the past. So far, I have never visited any landmark or museum
since I was a kid. It was one of my dreams and I bet if I ever visited one
someday, the feeling and experience would be overwhelming and
memorable to me. It would be amazing to see different artifacts and
paintings made by famous artists in the past. Regardless of our fields
of study or interests, visiting historical sites can lead to a deeper
engagement with historical events and give us an opportunity to develop
a fuller appreciation for those who lived before us. When taken seriously,
these experiences can be invaluable.
