IELTS WRITING TASK 1

Please give me feedback on this essay. Thank you very much.

The two maps illustrate changes that took place in Happy Valley Shopping Center between 1982 and 2012.

Overall, the most significant changes to the shopping center were the construction of a parking area and a furniture retail. Moreover, there were fewer stores in the center while the toilets and elevators remained unchanged.

In 1982, a lake was located to the left side of the map and opposite it was a road leading to the entrance. That took us to a lobby area, and then next to it was an entertainment area in the center. There were also some stores surrounding this area like: coffee, sports, furnitures and food shops and toilets and a elevator lied to the south of it.

By 2012, the lake was removed to make way for a furniture retail. A large parking lot was built in the southwest of the map, replacing the road that used to be there. Inside the shopping mall, there was a relocation of sports store and electronics store to the place of the coffee shop and food store, which made way for themed restaurants to be added. Additionally, the entertainment area, toilets and the elevator remained in the same position, while the furniture store was replaced by the food store.
