Describe an interesting city

Describe an interesting city

You should say:

  • What city it is
  • How you know it
  • What it is famous for
  • Why you think it is beautiful

Sample Answer
Well, X is the city that I’m in love with. And because I was overwhelmed by its size and beauty, I remember almost every minute that I spent there like it was just yesterday although I went there 2 years ago.

X is a bustling city, the capital of X. It’s so large that if you view the city from a tall building, you get the feeling that it doesn’t end. And as I’ve just said it’s by far the most beautiful city that I’ve ever visited.

X is divided into two parts, the old town and the modern city, therefore there’s an eclectic mix of historic architecture and modern buildings that have bizarre shapes. What is really amazing is that there are no ugly, cooker- cutter buildings in the modern part of the city. Due to a clever use of materials, almost each building has its unique design. There are a lot of beautiful and green zones, too.

I’m a keen walker so I explored the whole city on foot. And I really liked both parts of the city. For example, while walking around its historic part, I leisurely explored historically significant architecture, peaceful green spaces, and unique local attractions along the way. You can walk for days and still have something. new to see ’cause there are many places of cultural and historical value, and there are countless routes that can be taken in different parts of the city. Sometimes I just walked around the city having no destination in mind. I also visited the observation deck. It’s one of the most famous attractions there. I just couldn’t miss the opportunity to visit it although it was a bit pricey.So I walked, tried local food, visited famous attractions and enjoyed the beauty around. It really did feel likely jumping from antiquity into modern times all the time.I think X is a magical place.
