× I am currently living in a urban area where tall building can skyscraper are available and it's really amazing to witness such architecture and beautiful sceneries.
✓ I am currently living in an urban area where tall buildings and skyscrapers are common, and it's really amazing to witness such architecture and beautiful scenery.
Use 'an' before vowel sounds instead of 'a' (article error). 'tall building can skyscraper are available' is ungrammatical: use plural nouns 'tall buildings and skyscrapers' and a suitable verb 'are common' (sentence structure and plurality). 'sceneries' is usually uncountable in this sense; use 'scenery'. Improve coherence by joining clauses with 'and'. Suggested improvement: use correct articles before nouns, ensure nouns and verbs agree in number, and prefer 'scenery' for landscape views.
× Taking photographs and videos of such architecture as one way to showcase and experience how beautiful the sceneries in our urban area.
✓ I take photographs and videos of such architecture as a way to showcase and experience how beautiful the scenery in our urban area.
Sentence lacks a main verb form for a complete clause (sentence structure) and uses gerund phrase awkwardly. Use simple present 'I take' to answer habitual action. Replace 'as one way' with 'as a way' and 'sceneries' with 'scenery'. Suggested improvement: use a complete clause with a subject and verb and correct noun forms.
× If opportunity permits, I would like to visit the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. I heard a lot of stories about that building and SIM. It's also symbolize love and an affection for your loved ones.
✓ If the opportunity permits, I would like to visit the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. I have heard a lot of stories about that building and it also symbolizes love and affection for loved ones.
Missing definite article 'the' before 'opportunity' (article error). 'I heard' is acceptable but present perfect 'I have heard' fits ongoing relevance. 'SIM' appears to be a typo; replace with 'it' or remove. 'It's also symbolize' has subject-verb disagreement and wrong verb form; use 'it also symbolizes' (third person singular). Remove 'an' before 'affection' because 'affection' is uncountable here. Suggested improvement: include appropriate articles, use correct verb agreement and form, and remove typos.
× Yes, if given the chance I will choose to leave on a penthouse just for the fact that you can see the views and the virus surroundings.
✓ Yes, if given the chance I would choose to live in a penthouse just because you can see the views and the nearby surroundings.
'will choose' is grammatical but 'would choose' fits the conditional 'if given the chance' (modal/conditional usage). 'leave on a penthouse' is incorrect: 'live in a penthouse' (word choice). 'just for the fact that' is awkward; use 'just because'. 'the virus surroundings' is a typo; likely 'various' or 'nearby' intended—use 'nearby surroundings' or 'various surroundings' depending on meaning. Suggested improvement: match conditional modality, correct verb choice, and fix typos to convey intended meaning.
