65 The Balcony

65 The Balcony
The balcony is about eight square meters. If you look down, you can see far away places, because there is no tall buildings blocking your view. Tucked away in the corner, is a little maple tree. It is about one man tall and many of the leaves has turned yellow and fallen on the ground. The shape of this kind of tree is so nice that it obtains the name, Flowing Stream. In the middle of the balcony is a round table with two chairs made of bamboo strip. The chairs must have been used for a long time. It gets two holes in it. The table is covered with a piece of round glass. And through it, you can see some magazines lying under the glass.

The balcony is about eight square meters.

If you look down, you can see far away places, because there isare no tall buildings blocking your view.

The subject is technically "no tall buildings," hence "are" rather than "is."

Tucked away in the corner, is a little maple tree.

Inverting sentence structures is a great way to vary style. However, when you do so, you shouldn't add in any commas that wouldn't be there in the normal form of the sentence.

It is about the height of one man tall, and many of the leaves hasve turned yellow and fallen on the ground.

The shape of this kind of tree is so nice that it has obtainsed the name, Flowing Stream.

In the middle of the balcony is a round table with two chairs made of bamboo strips.

The chairs must have been used for a long time.

It getOne of them has two holes in it.

I'm guessing that you're referring to one of the chairs when you say "it."

The table is covered with a piece of round glass.

And through it, you can see some magazines lying under the glass.

Generally, you shouldn't begin sentences with "and," but I think here it's stylistically acceptable.
