Describing sights

Beitrag von goodox »

Hi, folks! 

Here's my assignment: Choose six of the sights and describe them so that a foreigner would know what you are talking about. Write about four sentence per sight. 

I'm sorry for my uncreative sentence.:D

Kölner Dom
Cologne Cathedral is the town's landmark. That building was build over 632 years. It's over 157 meter high. There are 533 steps to the top of the tower. 

Bodensee
Lake Constance is a lake on the Rhine and is a beautiful place where you can go on holiday. The lake is situated in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. If you want to see a nice view from the lake you have to go at one of the mountains. It worth it. Around the lake are many tourist attractions. It will not be boring. 

Reichstag
Reichstag is builded in Berlin. Reichstag is a place where politics met each other and talk about politic. Registered visitors can enter into the building and go to the fames dome, which is build from glass. In front of the Reichstag is a memorial of 96 politicians who was murdered by nazi regime. 

Deutsches Museum 
In Munich, called German museum, is the world's largest museum of science and technology. You can see about 28,000 exhibited objects. There are over 50 various sectors. German museum has three branches more. 

Englischer Garten
The "English Garden", is a large public park in the centre of Munich. That park has about 375 ha of area. The inspiration comes from England. There are some park-parts, waters and structures. 

Schloss Neuschwanstein
Neuschwanstein Castle is the most beautiful castle in Germany and is located in the most idyllic area. That castle was build for Ludwig II of Bavaria. He lived several month in this castle and died. He didn't saw the completion. 

Thanks a lot!

Kölner Dom
Cologne Cathedral is Cologne's main landmark. It took 632 years to build. It's over 157 meters high. There are 533 steps to the top of the tower. 
(I'd put "Cologne's" instead of "the town's" since Cologne isn't a well-known city to foreigners the way Berlin and Munich are.)

Bodensee
Lake Constance is a lake on the Rhine River and is a beautiful place where you can go for a holiday. The lake is situated in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. If you want to see a nice view from the lake, you have to go to one of the mountains. It is worth it. There are many tourist attractions around the like. It definitely is not a boring place
(Similar to the previous landmark, "Rhine River" is better than just "Rhine" here, since you're talking to foreigners.)

Reichstag
Reichstag was built in Berlin. Reichstag is a place where politicians meet and talk about politics. Registered visitors can enter into the building and go to the famous dome, which is built from glass. In front of the Reichstag is a memorial to 96 politicians who were murdered by the Nazi regime. 

Deutsches Museum 
In Munich there is the world's largest museum of science and technology, called the German Museum. You can see about 28,000 exhibits. There are over 50 various sectors. The German Museum has three other branches, as well

Englischer Garten
The "English Garden" is a large public park in the centre of Munich. It has about 375 ha of area. The inspiration for it comes from England. There are some normal park areas, lakes and streams, and structures. 

Schloss Neuschwanstein
Neuschwanstein Castle is the most beautiful castle in Germany and is located in the most idyllic area. The castle was built for Ludwig II of Bavaria. He lived several months in it and then died. He didn't get to see the completion. 

Thanks a lot!
Neuschwanstein definitely is beautiful :) I have a picture of it as the background on my laptop.
