Contoh teks Recount
SUMMER HOLIDAY
On the last summer holiday,
I got a chance to visit South Korea with my friends. On the first day, I
visited Gyeongbokgung Palace and the National Museum of Korea. After that, we
went to dinner and ate traditional food from Korea to restore our energy back
after a long flight, Samgyetang. The second day, we went to the Seoul Tower and
saw the whole scenery of Seoul from above. Then we go shopping in a shopping
district name Hongdae. On the third day, we visit the Jeju Island and stay
there for a night. We spent the fourth day on Jeju Island as well, we went
around Jeju Volcanic Around which listed as one of the UNESCO's World Heritage.
We spent the last day on Seoul, walking around the city, and shopping at
Myeondong. It was a great trip with my friends to Seoul. I wish I could go
back.
