Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
''Doing sightseeing'' should be replaced with ''sightseeing'', thereby indicating the idea of spending time visiting places of interest in the historical city.
The use of '"doing" before ''sightseeing'' is redundant since ''sightseeing'' in the sentence already implies the action of sightseeing.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "As long as we are in this historical city let us spend our time sightseeing. "
