LETTER-WRITING is an important channel of communication between people who are geographically distant from one another. In earlier times when the telephone and e-mail were not available, the only means of communication between people was through letters.
So, here I am going to show how you can write a letter. In this article, we will provide you with detailed information regarding the formal letter format about educative value of travelling. Read on to know everything about formal letter format. Below I have given the full format of a letter, by following which you can write the letter and can apply for.

My dear Subhash,
Received your letter. You have my consent to your plan for a cycle tour in company with your friends. Travelling is a form of education, and a very realistic form at that. It gives you first hand knowledge of the places through which you pass. It also brings you into contact with different people of different ways of life. These lessons are more interesting and more effective than what you get from books. You read of the majesty of the Himalayas, of the different irrigation projects, of the aboriginal tribes like the Santals and the Kols, and of the lives of village people in the interior. But you cannot have any clear conception of them unless you see them with your own eyes. This is why educational tours are encouraged everywhere.
Your plan to travel by cycle instead of by rail or car has appealed to me much. This will enable you to get into touch with all you pass through or meet. This will combine the joy of adventure with the joy of knowledge and experience. Besides, it will be a good lesson in bearing hardships of all sorts-hunger, sun, rain, fatigue, etc. And this is a training so necessary for success in life. Don’t forget to give me the details of your tour. Accept my best wishes.
Yours affectionately,
Father
