    What types of building are there in your city?

    Well, when it comes to my city, Ho Chi Minh city, the first thing that comes to
    people’s mind will be a developing metropolis with a mixture of the historical and
    modern buildings. The historical buildings consist of many temples, pagodas, and
    monuments, … meanwhile the modern ones include many high-rise apartments,
    commercial complexes and office blocks,
    Are historical buildings important?
    Yes, absolutely. Actually, historical buildings are important to every city, region and
    even country. They are witnesses of t2e past and it’s very crucial and practical that we
    preserve them to pass on knowledge to the next generations.

    What is the most important for a public building: design, location, or


    facilities?
    Well, everything has its price so they are all important. However, in my opinion,
    the design and facilities should be paid more attention than the other. When it
    comes to design, it’s the appearance, the architectural or aesthetic style that should
    be discussed because it’s the first thing people notice of a building. In other words,
    it’s important to be eye-catching to make people have a good impression. Then, the
    facilities inside also play a key role. If there are a lot of entertaining or artsy spaces
    in the building, people would be drawn to be there even though the location is
    inconvenient.
    . Do you think the appearance of a building is important?

    Absolutely. No one likes an eyesore. It is like something really ugly and big at the
    same time that you have to always notice it from afar. The appearance of a building is
    considered to be as important as a good impression of a person.  For example, when
    a tenant enters a building what are the things that they see? It must be the architectural
    or aesthetic style. Therefore, in a highly competitive market place, the appearance of
    a property can not only go a long way to attracting new clients, but also can
    help retain clients and maximize asset value. In fact, it may become
    something iconic of the town or a city if it is well-designed.

    DESCRIBE HOME TOWN, NEIGHBORHOOD

    I live in the west in a house of stone walls. The surroundings are very peaceful and
    simple. The fresh air makes me feel more comfortable and love life. There is a
    hospital near my house. That is very convenient and safe. Around there are houses far
    apart, so it is very spacious and airy. Especially behind my house there are 5 fish
    ponds and land for growing many kinds of fruits such as coconut, jackfruit,
    banana, .... I love the place where I was born and raised because it gives me a normal
    life. the eccentricity of a country child and a beautiful soul. MY neighborhood is very
    friendly, they are willing to help us when we need it

    BUILDING

    I’m going to tell you about a new skyscraper located at the heart of Ho Chi Minh
    City, which is called Landmark 81, and it’s currently the highest building in
    Southeast Asia, with 81 floors.The building was opened and put into use on 2018. I
    got to know this building when I moved to Ho Chi Minh City for my university
    life. I live in District 7 so I usually go there by motorbike for about 45 minutes.
    The original design of this tower is inspired by bamboo trees, which symbolize the
    Vietnamese people’s solidarity and strength. The lower floors are shopping malls,
    while the upper floors are offices for rent and restaurants serving customers
    I really enjoy the leisure time I spent there because it helps me relax after a hard
    working day, I can see the beautiful city from distance and enjoy a city that doesn't
    sleep for a real chill with my family or my friend
