Dear Lisa,
How are you doing I am extremely delighted to receive your letter and know that you are planning to visit my hometown, Harbin. Let me introduce my beautiful hometown to you.
Harbin is a city full of charm. Central Street is undoubtedly the most beautiful street and the most famous scenic spot. It is lined with unique European-style buildings, and strolling on it makes you feel as if you are in a fairy tale world. Another remarkable landmark is the Dragon Tower. Once the tallest steel tower in Asia, it stands majestically, offering a panoramic view of the city.
There are many reasons why I love my hometown. Firstly, Harbin has a rich cultural heritage. The combination of different cultures creates a unique atmosphere. Secondly, the winter in Harbin is magical. With magnificent ice sculptures and exciting winter activities, it attracts tourists from all over the world.
Looking forward to seeing you soon!
