Hi, everyone!

Today in these lessons you will learn how to describe your favourite place.

You will learn how to express your feelings.

You will learn how to write an article describing a popular tourist destination.

When we write an article describing a place, we usually write four paragraphs.

In the first paragraph we give the name and location of the place and the reason for choosing it.

In the second and third paragraph we describe the main aspects of the place giving both general and specific details about the place / building usually moving from general features to the specific ones.

We should describe what we could see and do there.

In the fourth paragraph we write our comments and feelings about the place, as well as our recommendation.

You may also be asked to explain why a particular place is important to you, popular, etc. Note that the number and length of paragraphs varies depending on the topic.

Description of the place / buildings may be included in several other types of writing tasks, such as stories, assessment reports, articles, brochures, letters and magazine articles.

We normally use present tenses to describe a place. We also use a variety of adjectives to make our article more living to the reader.
