IELTS Cue Card: Describe your hometown

Describe your hometown.

You should know:

• Where is your hometown?
• What is it famous for?
• What do people do here?

My hometown is Dehradun. It is a valley town nestled in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains. Picturesque sights and natural landscapes make it one of the most beautiful places to visit in India. It is also the state capital of Uttarakhand, and is about two hundred and fifty kilometers away from the national capital, New Delhi.

For its central location and religious significance, Dehradun is colloquially known as the gateway to God’s abode. Apart from the holy spirit, tourist attractions like Mussoorie, Kempty falls, Camel’s back mountains, Robber’s cave and the Forest Research Institute give Dehradun a different feel. Adding further, this city is renowned as an education hub. Students of all age groups from different parts of the country come to study here.

Another notable centre of attraction in Dehradun is the prestigious Indian Military Academy. It is a crown jewel which imparts a glorious prestige to the whole state of Uttarakhand. The pleasant weather of Dehradun also deserves special mention here. It is one of the few places in the country where one can experience five different seasons of the year.

In terms of the infrastructure and businesses, Dehradun is developing gradually.  Education, manufacturing, food production and information technology are the main sectors which provide employment to a large number of people. As a whole, Dehradun has its own unique essence that the locals cherish. Its natural beauty, weather and quality of life, all make it a lovable place for everyone, including me.
