Model Answer Writing Dear friend, I just visited the Hofburg Palace. This is a very famous palace and it played an important part in Austria’s history. Today, it is the home of the President of Austria. It has an Armor Museum, the People’s Garden, a music chapel, and the Spanish Riding School. You can also take a horse & carriage ride around the palace. I really enjoyed my visit to the Hofburg Palace. However, I especially liked the Armor Museum, the People’s Garden and the horse & carriage ride. In the Armor Museum, I saw weapons and armor from hundreds of years ago. I also saw a life size model of a tournament from the 1400s. The People’s Garden was beautiful. I took my lunch and had a picnic there. It is full of flowers and has many fountains. The last thing I did was take a horse & carriage ride around the palace grounds. It was relaxing after a tiring day of walking around the palace. I had a wonderful time. Sincerely, your friend
