× Yes, there are so many of the buildings I like to visit.
✓ Yes, there are so many buildings I would like to visit.
This sentence has an incorrect use of the article 'the' with 'many of the buildings' and a missing modal/tense consistency. Use 'many buildings' (no 'the') to express a general quantity, and use 'would like to' to clearly express desire to visit. Suggestion: say 'there are so many buildings I would like to visit.' Grammar problem type ID:1
× No, I don't. I like to go there for a visit because I find a places there that I find more beautiful to take a photo.
✓ No, I don't. I like to go there for a visit because I find places there that are more beautiful to photograph.
Errors: 'a places' mixes singular article with plural noun (singular/plural and article error). Also 'that I find more beautiful to take a photo' is awkward and has verb form issues. Correct by removing the incorrect article, using 'places' (plural), and use 'are more beautiful to photograph' (adjective + infinitive verb form) for clear phrasing. Suggestion: use 'places' without 'a' and 'to photograph' instead of 'to take a photo.' Grammar problem type ID:22
× Yes, I take photos of buildings because there are so many angles that I find it beautiful to take a photo with.
✓ Yes, I take photos of buildings because there are so many angles that I find beautiful to photograph.
Problems: unnecessary and awkward preposition 'with' at the end and redundant phrase 'find it beautiful to take a photo with.' Better to use 'find beautiful to photograph' or 'that make for beautiful photos.' Suggestion: remove the trailing preposition and simplify to 'find beautiful to photograph.'

× Yes, there are many tall buildings near my home because I live in a big city. There are also big malls for shopping.
✓ Yes, there are many tall buildings near my home because I live in a big city. There are also large malls for shopping.
No major grammatical errors, but 'big malls' is acceptable; 'large malls' is a slightly more natural collocation. This is an optional stylistic improvement rather than a strict grammatical correction. Suggestion: prefer 'large malls' or keep 'big malls' if informal. Grammar problem type ID:13
