My first visit to Nha Trang, the coastal city, was three yearsago It was a pleasant and memorable trip Nha Trang, the capital
of Khanhs Hoaf province, has one of the most popular municipalbeaches in all of Vietnam In Nha Trang, nature beauties are sotempting Waves crashing onto the cliffs; the soft sigh of the seabreeze; clean white sands and turquoise waters; it all makes for astunning landscapes
On my visit to Nha Trang, I used to get up early eachmorning to stroll along the beach - a chance to breath in the freshsea air and enjoy the sunrise across the water One attraction thatcaptivated me three years ago and still it does is the collection ofsmall offshore islands Hon Tre is the largest of the islands, andMonkey island is, as the name suggests, the home of hundreds ofwild monkeys Yen island is known for its swifts' nests
Nha Trang is the city in hamoney: its fine weather, favoriteposition and friendly people bring it a cerain balance Nha Trang
is a great holiday destination I hope to have chance to comeback

of other countries Finally, if students are sent to foreign countriesfor their studies, they will be likely to become more mature andindependent Experiencing new things including cultures andcustoms would be beneficial to their later lives because they learnmany useful things In short, it seems that studying abroad is a goodopportunity to help young learners better prepare for their future
