Subject: Hi from Men

   Hi Duy,

   My name is Men. My home town is Hung Yen but since I was little I lived with my family in Gia Lai. My family has six people: my parents, my older sister, me and three younger siblings (two girls and one boy). I am 21 years old, and I’m a university student in Ha Noi. I’m studying travel science. I’m in my third year and I really like it.

   I’m going to tell you about myself. As you can see from the phot, I have long hair – it’s quite fair – and brown eyes.

   I think I’m a gentle person. I’m quite introvert but friendly with people around me. And when I’m with someone on the same frequecy, I can say a lot.

   In my free time I love sleeping and going to the cinema. But I don’t have much free time because I have classes on Monday and Tuesday, and a lot of work to do event at weekends.

   Please write soon and tell me about you and your life.

   Best wishes

   Men

   We had been plannig the trip for months, and we were so excited to finally be there. We spent an afternoon walking around “Rung thong Ban Ang”, admiring the beautiful scenery, enjoying the games here and we also took a lot of photos, but this one is my favorite because it captures the perfect moment of our friendship.

   In the photo, we were sitting on the green grass, all of us smiled brightly and looked at each other. This is the moment that proves our great friendship, it’s so beautiful. And especcially, the friend who sat next to me was my boyfriend, we met and fell in love while play in the same group.

   I printed that photo and put it in a beatiful corner on my desk. I really like that photo because it helped me preserve the beautiful moments of our friendship. I feel so happy to have great friends.

Dear Mrs Sanders ,

Thank you for this letter of yours. I will come to see you next August, I am very much looking foward to it.

I'll arrive at Gatwick airport at 8am and I'll catch the train to Brighton. When I get to the station I will call you and will be waiting for you at the station.

I’ll tell you about myself. I’m 21 years old, have a good figue, brown eyes and long black hair. I'm quite easy to eat, I seem to be able to eat everything except strong smelling dishes. I don't smoke and hate it. I want to stay in a single room because it will be more comfortable. After finishing the course, I will stay for about 1 weeks to have fun. Will you introduce me to some interesting places?

Looking forward to hearing from you

Best wishes

Ivan

See you

The original tower was built in the 15th century during the reign of King Lê Thái Tổ. It was destroyed by the French in 1886 and rebuilt in 1896. The current tower is a replica of the original and is made of stone and wood.

The tower is three stories tall and is square in shape. The first story has four arched doorways, one on each side. The second story has four windows, also one on each side. The third story is smaller than the first two and has a single window on the front side. The tower is topped with a conical roof.

The interior of the tower is small and empty. There is a small altar on the first floor where incense is burned. The second and third floors are not accessible to the public.

The Turtle Tower is an important symbol of Hanoi and Vietnam. It is a reminder of the country's long history and culture. The tower is also a popular tourist destination and is often photographed by visitors to Hanoi.
