Paragraph 1
My visit to Nha Trang last year included a brief tour to Ponagar Cham Towers. This tower complex is one of the most beautiful examples of Cham architecture in central Vietnam. The Ponagar Cham Towers consist of four towers. They are located on Cu Lao Marble Hill, two kilometers north of Nha Trang. They were built between the 8th and 13th centuries. The remaining towers were dedicated to different gods. The largest one was built in honor of Lady Thien Y. The 22.5m tower contains her sandstone statue sitting on Buddha’s throne. The 2.6 statue has 10 hands, each is holding a specific object illustrating the power of Buddha. The tour to Ponagar Cham Towers lasted 5 hours. I was rather tired but the tour was enjoyable, memorable and informative.

Viet Nam is a beautiful country and there are many beautiful destinations. I have ever gone to many land –capes but the place I would like to tell you is Hue. I would not forget this wonderful trip, which lasted in two weeks, with my family on my summer vacation 5 years ago.
Hue is located in the central of Viet Nam, which belongs to Thua THien Hue province. When I came there the weather was generally quite hot, but I felt be very excited because this was the first trip in my life to Hue. There were many things make me to remember forever. the first thing was that people are very kind, friendly and hospitable, they are ready to help or take care of anyone. Besides, the sightseeing was very beautiful and I visited many places such as: Hue citadel, Huong river, Thien Mu pagoda, Trang Tien bridge and we also went to Dong Ba market to buy some souvenirs. Last but not least, Hue is also famous for food. I tried many kinds of food such as Hue rice, Hue beef noodles. They were so delicious that I tried many times.
To sum up, that was a maverlous trip. I completely felt happy and I will remember it forever so if I have a change, I will come back and discover many famous places there again.
