Location

 

Where is your country? Use absolute and relative loaction to describe where your country is. Is it near a familiar landmark that most people will recognize like an ocean, mountain range, or other country?

In the northeast, the Sierra de Luquillo has the rain forest of El Yunque. The whole area is 29,000 acres including the Caribbean National Forest that is a huge tourist attraction. The island’s whole area is 9,104 sq km and has 501 km of coastline.

Compare and Contrast

 

Why should someone choose to visit your country over another. What makes it different than other tourist destinations? What is it about your country that makes it unique? If people come to your country, what will they find that will be familiar to them? Many people like to go on vacation to get away, but that does not mean that everything should be foreign! Tell tourist what they can expect to find that will comfort them like home does.
