9Th English Test : Recount Text

On Wednesday, my best friends and I went to Yogyakarta. We stayed at the Tentrem Hotel located not far from Malioboro. On Thursday, we visited the temples in Prambanan. There are three big temples, the Brahmana, Syiwa and Wisnu temples. They are really amazing. On Friday night we went to Malioboro. We spent about two hours there. We were lucky because there are lots of promotions for visitors such as discounts for batik and handcrafted bags, free testers for bakpia, and so on. I bought new clothes for my sister and a bag for my mom with big discount. After that we left for Jakarta by train.
