Write a well-organized essay to compare two places. mXlPd
Apart from my hometown, there are two places that evoke special feelings in me. The first of them is Ho Chi Minh City, where I studied during my university time and the place where I live now. The other is Da Lat city that made me feel it was an ideal place to live for the first time I came here. Both of them seem like the most livable places in Vietnam, but they have many differences in common. The biggest difference is the climate in each place. Da Lat is located at about 1500 meters above sea level and is surrounded by mountains and pine forest, so Da Lat inherits a mild and cool climate all year round. The average temperature is between 18 and 21 degrees Celsius. Due to the cold climate, almost all households as well as hotels do not need air conditioners, and that is one unique point about Da Lat. In contrast to Da Lat, Ho Chi Minh City lies in Southern Vietnam quite near the equator with a height of only 20 meters above sea level, so it must suffer from a long period of heatwave which lasts about half a year. At that time, it is so hot that no one wants to be kept away from the air conditioner. However, for the rest of the year, Ho Chi Minh City usually receives large amounts of precipitation, which makes the weather more pleasant. The second difference is the culture of the community. Although Da Lat is a modern city, it still keeps the features of traditional culture, which come from ethnic groups. These ethnic minority groups have constructed their own distinctive cultural identities that have enriched the treasure of Vietnamese culture in terms of cultural festivals and rituals. Annually, in the season of festivals, local people organize traditional festivals and ritual ceremonies, attracting a large number of domestic and foreign visitors to observe and join. Ho Chi Minh City also has a culture which attracts many visitors, but the special culture of Ho Chi Minh is a cultural fusion of many regions, not only in Vietnam but also in the world, such as the North, Central, and South cultures in Vietnam, Chinese culture, and Western culture, etc. When you arrive at different areas in Ho Chi Minh City, you will see different cultures that belong to a specific region. Traffic is a noticeable difference between Ho Chi Minh City and Da Lat City. In Ho Chi Minh City, traffic lights are very important on the street because there are a lot of vehicles on the street, especially in the rush hour. Unlike Ho Chi Minh City, Da Lat has no traffic light because Da Lat has many steep hills, so it will be dangerous and difficult if vehicles stop and wait for the red light in the middle of the slope. Therefore, at intersections, a roundabout is built to regulate traffic. In conclusion, the two cities have had a profound impact on my life. Ho Chi Minh City is a memory from university time, and the place provides the best conditions for my career. For Da Lat City, it gives me a sense of familiarity with the surroundings as my hometown and it makes me feel peaceful.
Apart from my hometown, there are two
places
that evoke special feelings in me. The
first
of them is Ho Chi Minh City, where I studied during my university
time
and the
place
where I
live
now
. The other is
Da
Lat city that made me feel it was an ideal
place
to
live
for the
first
time
I came here. Both of them seem like the most livable
places
in Vietnam,
but
they have
many
differences
in common.

The biggest
difference
is the climate in each
place
.
Da
Lat
is located
at about 1500 meters above sea level and
is surrounded
by mountains and pine forest,
so
Da
Lat inherits a mild and cool climate all year round. The average temperature is between 18 and 21 degrees Celsius. Due to the
cold
climate, almost all households
as well
as hotels do not need
air
conditioners, and
that is
one unique point about
Da
Lat.
In contrast
to
Da
Lat, Ho Chi Minh City lies in Southern Vietnam quite near the equator with a height of
only
20 meters above sea level,
so
it
must
suffer from a long period of heatwave which lasts about half a year. At that
time
, it is
so
hot that no one wants to be
kept
away from the air conditioner.
However
, for the rest of the year, Ho Chi Minh City
usually
receives large amounts of precipitation, which
makes
the weather more pleasant.

The second
difference
is the
culture
of the community. Although
Da
Lat is a modern city, it
still
keeps
the features of traditional
culture
, which
come
from ethnic groups. These ethnic minority groups have constructed their
own
distinctive cultural identities that have enriched the treasure of Vietnamese
culture
in terms of cultural festivals and rituals.
Annually
, in the season of festivals, local
people
organize traditional festivals and ritual ceremonies, attracting
a large number of
domestic and foreign visitors to observe and
join
. Ho Chi Minh City
also
has a
culture
which attracts
many
visitors,
but
the special
culture
of Ho Chi Minh is a cultural fusion of
many
regions, not
only
in Vietnam
but
also
in the world, such as the North, Central, and South
cultures
in Vietnam, Chinese
