Dear Nadia,
This summer, we went to Aqaba on holiday. Aqaba is in the south of Jordan by the sea. I went with my family and we travelled there by car. We stayed with my uncle and aunt in their house.
There are a lot of buildings in Aqaba. They are very beautiful. This is a picture of the castle in Ayla. It’s very interesting. This was my favourite building.
There are some beautiful beaches in Aqaba. You can swim in the sea. We spent a day on the beach. I like Aqaba. We had a good time and I want to go there again one day.
Best Wishes,
Fatima
