    Place 1 : An important building 
    Describe an important building in your city 
    You should say : 
    Where the building is located 
    What it looks like 
    What it is used for 
    How often you visit this place. 
    Suggestion 
    It is quite difficult to describe traditional Chinese architecture in English, so it is best

    An easy building to describe is a multi-functional building, e.g. a shopping and 
    entertainment centre.
