Dear Peter，
I’m writing to ask you to visit the China Ethnic Museum this Saturday morning.
Covering an area of 50 hectares, the museum is well known for its ethnic activities. At the
museum, as well as admiring varieties of buildings of ethnic features, we can watch diverse
cultural exhibitions, including pictures, clothing and cultural relics. Additionally, we can watch
wonderful folk performances. If you are interested, let’s meet at our school gate at 8:00 am.
Considering your deep interest in Chinese diverse cultures, I’m sure you will enjoy yourself
there. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
