Sample Answer 1

There are various places I have been to, but one of them is exceptional, and hence it is worth mentioning. The name of this place is Shimla. It is a hill station in the north of India. This place is full of natural beauty and lush green surroundings.

Apart from that, the climate is also good. In winter, we also get snowfall; in summer, the days are hot, but the winters are cold. So it’s an ideal place to live. I visited there last year during my summer vacation and enjoyed it a lot. I went there with my family, so we had a trip for seven to eight days. There are various good places to see nearby, like Naldera, Shogi, Chal, and Kufri.

So when you are at this place, you have various options to see, plus the food you get is delicious. There is an old cafe called Indian Coffee House, which is around 70 years old and serves terrific coffee.

You can also enjoy mouth-watering snacks while roaming on the mall road. So I recommend this place to others because this is when people are so absorbed in their daily lives, so their daily routines, the students remain busy with studies, and the working people have only weekends to enjoy.

So I recommend visiting Shimla because it is a stress buster and connects you to nature because, at places like Shimla, you don’t feel like remaining connected to your smartphones and laptops. Instead, you enjoy the clean and pristine environment of nature.
