Dear Mom and Dad,

I am writing to share my enjoyable experience with you. I hope this letter will find you all well.
Yesterday Budi’s classmates and I went to visit five tourist objects in Yogyakarta and its surrounding e.g. the
Sultan Palace, Tamansari Water Castle, Yogya Kembali Monument, Prambanan Temple, and Borobudur
Temple. We hired a mini bus. Budi, my closest friend in Yogya, acted as a tour guide. We departed very early in
the morning and were back home at 6.15 p.m. So we spent the whole day.
All of the five objects are interesting but Borobudur and Prambanan Temples are more interesting than the
others. Borobudur is a Buddhist temple, while Prambanan is a Hindu one. A friend of mine said that these two
temples were really wonderful. After I saw them by myself, they are even more wonderful than what I have
imagined. Of these two objects, Borobudur is the most wonderful object I have ever seen. It is much bigger than
Prambanan; it is one of the biggest temples in the world. No wonder it is famous throughout the world. Everyone
there looked very amazed by this huge building. I am sure you will admire it, too. Make sure you take your
camera with you when you visit it next year.
Well, I will write to you again next week to tell you more about the temples mentioned above.
