There are many beautiful cities and towns in the world. I want to visit some of them but there is no place like home. I love my native city. I was born here and live with my parents. It's not the capital, but it is a wonderful place to live.

I can’t say that my city is old or modern. It is old because it was founded in the 11th century. At that time its streets were narrow, dark and dirty. Now my city looks modern because of its beautiful buildings and monuments. The streets of my city are wide and clean.

I live in the main street. It is the widest street in the city. A lot of cars, buses and trolley-buses run fast along it. If you want to see the places of interest in our city, you can walk along the main street. It leads to the main square. You can see a lot: a cinema and a theatre, an art gallery and museums, a stadium, a zoo and a large park.

Our art gallery is at the main post office. Opposite the post office there is a modern hotel. When you turn left, you can see a theatre. And in front of the theatre there is a museum of history and culture. If you want to visit our zoo, take a bus and get off on the third bus stop. Not far from the traffic lights you can see the zoo. There is a circus at the zoo. Children and tourists always visit it. There are only some churches in our city. Every evening we can hear the sound of the bells.

Come and see everything with your own eyes. It is better to see than to hear.
