📖 Contoh Teks Model Jawaban
🏖 Example 1 – Describing a Beach
My Favorite Place: Parangtritis Beach
Parangtritis Beach is my favorite place to visit. It is located in Yogyakarta, about 27 kilometers from the city. The beach is wide and has soft black sand. Many people know it as one of the most beautiful beaches in Java.
The scenery at Parangtritis is very stunning. The waves are strong and the sound of the water makes me feel relaxed. Sometimes I can see a beautiful sunset that colors the sky in orange and pink. On the sand, I like to walk barefoot and feel the warm texture. The beach is also surrounded by green hills that make the view even more attractive. For me, Parangtritis Beach is not only beautiful but also peaceful. I always feel calm and happy whenever I go there.
🏞 Example 2 – Describing a Mountain
My Favorite Place: Mount Bromo
Mount Bromo is my favorite place because it has an amazing view. It is located in East Java, inside Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. The mountain is about 2,300 meters high. Many tourists from all over the world visit Bromo to see its beauty.
The best thing about Mount Bromo is the sunrise. When the sun rises, the sky looks golden and the sea of clouds covers the hills. The air is cold and fresh, which makes me feel very comfortable. The crater is huge and still active, so it looks unique and powerful. For me, Bromo is a magical place that always gives me unforgettable memories.

My Favorite Place: Bandung City Square
One of my favorite places is Bandung City Square. It is located in the center of Bandung, near the Grand Mosque. The square is wide and covered with green artificial grass, so many families and children like to play there.
The atmosphere in Bandung City Square is very lively. At night, the lamps around the mosque look colorful and beautiful. I usually come with my friends to sit, talk, and enjoy street food nearby. The air feels fresh, and the people are friendly. This place makes me happy because I can relax and spend quality time with my family and friends.
