Formal letter

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing because I would like to receive information about your hotel. I went to London last year and I spent four days in a lovely hotel in the outskirts. Would it be possible to receive some pictures of your hotel? It would be great if you could attach some comments by customers that have visited the hotel.
Thank you very much,
Yours faithfully,
John Smith

Do you know anything about geography?


Talk about this picture and describe its geographical features: mountains, lakes, valleys, sea, ocean...
Then write a short description of the map (use there is, there are...)

Compare!
