Writing Assignment Number 3 - Netherlands

Writing Assignment Number 3: The Netherlands

During my last summer vacation, my parents, my little sister and I traveled to the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. In my essay, I would like to describe our trip to the Netherlands.


The Netherlands, or Holland as it is called, is a very big and beautiful country in Europe. It has a lot of peaceful villages with beautiful views and Windmills. One of them was(is) Hithorn, where we visited on the first day. It is a very special village that is built on the bank of a big river, so you can visit it only by boat. We sailed this river, and enjoyed it very much.
-
On the second day, we went to Amsterdam. Amsterdam is the capital city of Holland that(and it) is a very big and crowded. There are a lot of beggars in the streets that ask people for money and a lot of thieves. We visited Anne Frank's museum in Amsterdam. We were excited during this visit. After that, we went to "Madame Tussaud" museum, which is a wax museum where you can see a lot of famous people's figures made of wax.
-
On the third day, we went to an amusment park named "Eftling". Eftling is an amusment park like DisneyWorld in the USA. It was an unforgettable adventure that everybody liked. On the 4th day, we went to Den Haag, where we saw the Government and the Queen's palace. After that, we visited Rotterdam, a very big city in Holland where we visited the miniature Madurodem, which is a small replica of Holland.
-
To conclude, Holland is a very unique country that everyone should visit. All the views there are amazing, and you can't see them in other countries. All the small villiages and views are special. I enjoyed being there. I hope to go to there again.
Excellent work!
One word of advise, though, when your writing an account of a trip like, and describing what you did on each day, seperate the different eventful days into different paragraphs, inorder for your writing not to be to "crowded". Always think of the structure you would like to give your essay, to make it clearer for your readers, and divide into as many paragraphs as you need.
