How to describe a place : 

-Describe place through characters’ senses. 

We feel connected to place in a story when we see it through characters’ senses. Bring senses such as sight, hearing, touch, smell and even taste (there’s edible wallpaper in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) into your setting. Using every sense might not make sense for your book, yet it’s possible. In Roald Dahl’s children’s classic, set in a sweet factory full of wonder, it somehow makes sense even the wallpaper is delicious.

When you are describing places on your story, think about tone and mood. Should this setting be intimidating or welcoming? Ancient, dusty and arcane or ultra-modern and spotless? What does an ancient, dusty mood smell like (old books? Damp carpets?).

Use the ‘Core Setting’ section of your story dashboard on Now Novel to create your story outline online, including key setting elements.

-Include time period in description. 

‘Time’ is an important aspect of setting. This is particularly so in historical fiction. Details from the types of buildings and shops that line the main road of a city to individual details of people’s clothing and speech contribute to a sense of when the story happens. A story set in 1950s Chicago will naturally have very different buildings, cars, and people, than one set in the late 2000s.

-Include small-scale changes in time. 

In addition to creating the broader sense of time or period, you can use small-scale time (such as time of day or the way place changes week to week or month to month).

Think of how time of day and physical changes to a place in time can both contribute tone and mood.

-Show how characters feel about your setting. 

Story settings affect and alter characters’ moods and states of mind, just as places affect our own. Learning how to describe a place thus means, in part, learning how to describe places so that they reveal characters’ desires, interests, fears and more.

Bring your character’s personalities, passions and histories to bear on the setting details they notice and describe.

-Keep setting description relevant to the story. 

Often writers starting out try to describe every little detail in painstaking detail. Others describe everything in broad generalizations. Each have pros and drawbacks.

-List adjectives to describe your story locations. 

Learning how to describe a place means also broadening your vocabulary with words that capture setting. There are so many adjectives to describe an ‘old’ building, for example. Each of the following terms describe age, yet with different shades of meaning:

Ancient: Belonging to the very distant past (OED)

Anachronistic: Belonging or appropriate to an earlier period, especially so as to seem conspicuously old-fashioned (OED)

Prehistoric: (Informal) Very old or out of date (OED)

Archaic: Very old or old-fashioned (OED)

Venerable: Accorded a great deal of respect, especially because of age, wisdom, or character (OED)

Even if you don’t use every word you find, this exercise will help you pinpoint the mood of a place. Think about elements such as a place’s:

Age

Mood

Atmosphere

Size

Appeal

Example : 

LAWANG SEWU

 Lawang Sewu is an important place in semarang and for years tourists have returned to semarang only to get a glimpse of this amazing place here. Lawang sewu was one of the historic construction of the Dutch colonial government, on February 27, 1904. They were happy to come here only because of the distinctive Dutch symbol and the very long corridor led to the office on the other side.

 Lawang sewu is famous for its thousand doors and Windows and intricate Windows representing the Dutch symbolism of these places. The building has many long, winding corridors that open to the office on one side of the office and at the other end of the building on the other side. It's a historic building in the semarang area.

 It was actually built as a major colonial office for the Netherlands and then taken over by the Japanese government. This place is important because it's used to provide protection to the soldiers here. It is often viewed as a haunted place because many believe that it is inhabited by spirits and demons.

 Later, however, it was converted into an inheritance site and many came to visit it during their vacation or vacation while coming to visit semarang.

Writing : 

TOKO "OEN"

The "oen" store is a legendary culinary business which has pioneered since the Dutch colonial era.

Located on youth street, semarang, this bakery and ice cream shop consistently represents delicacies of the Dutch style and have not stopped innovating until now since they were founded in 1922.

Although it's called a store, but the concept is more of a restaurant that is available. Like most Dutch buildings, they had large double-size Windows and thick double-wood doors. Beautiful chandeliers dangled from the ceiling giving off an impression of colonial opulence.

The ocean is increasingly familiar with the many photographs, paintings, and figurines that feature life in the past. The rattan furniture surrounding his cocoa table also adds to the old school appearance. Especially woodwork, old wooden cabinets, and some of its antiquities actually restore the memory of the colonial atmosphere.

With its super classic appearance, the oen semarang shop can indeed be rated as keeping the big picture up. Although the high ceilings and many vents of the Netherlands already gave a cool impression of adem, the manager also added air conditioning to make it more comfortable. Visitors can also freely taste and select a cake that is placed in a large glass jar that is no doubt difficult to find today.

Vocabulary :

A vocabulary is a set of familiar words within a person's language. A vocabulary, usually developed with age, serves as a useful and fundamental tool for communication and acquiring knowledge. Acquiring an extensive vocabulary is one of the largest challenges in learning a second language.

Example : 

-With 

-Of

-On

-And 

-Now

-A

-Is

Word order : 

Word order in the English language is a framed phrase to form a sentence that has full meaning.

For example, the phrase "I love you" is defined as subject + object object (svo) which finally has meaning to be used. If the word is inverted, it has no meaning at all.

Example : 

-The "oen" store is a legendary culinary business which has pioneered since the Dutch colonial era.

-Visitors can also freely taste and select a cake that is placed in a large glass jar that is no doubt difficult to find today.
