Travel Photo Essay
Pretend you are a travel writer. Your assignment is to write a travel photo essay highlighting some of the important natural or man-made landmarks unique to a particular location. The location can be local, national, or international. It can be a city, town, or rural area. Your travel photo essay will include an introduction, two photos with descriptions, and a conclusion.
Start with a 100-word introduction. The introduction should include why you picked the tourist location and what impact visiting the landmarks had on you.
Insert two images (from the web or your own photographs) into the essay. Write a 100-word description of each of the landmarks. Place each description below the corresponding image.
Write a 200-word concluding paragraph (summary) about the cultural significance of both of the landmarks to the local people and the impact the locals have on the landmarks. What impact does each of these landmarks have on the shared identity, beliefs, economics, environment, and/or activities of the people living in that community? Are the local people impacting the landmarks positively or negatively? How?
