wit other people. For doing this, At first I was very hesitated to advise other people about where to

must visit so that they can have the Excellent experience of the City as well as they can also suggest
other people about what is more exciting and fun to visit. I am a person who is more inquisitive in
knowing about different things and about different places as well, for conducting this research i

areas of interests too. To Conduct the effective research and to promote the Excellent learning, I
