Disappointed by the ancient city of Luanzhou, where is the charm of the past when the fireworks are gone?

It is rumored that there is a place called the ancient city of Luanzhou in the world of rivers and lakes, its name so mystical that it inspires longing. The rumors speak of its ancient charm and long history, making it an excellent place to explore the past. However, only when one visits in person does one realize how deep the pitfalls of ancient cities can be, with Luanzhou's being particularly profound! The true historical sites here are but three: a city tower that might still evoke a sense of the past; a pagoda that seems to narrate a millennium of vicissitudes; and a river, whose flowing waters whisper the stories of yore. Beyond these, there is an endless commercial street. On this street, snack stalls are everywhere, yet they are all the same, with stinky tofu, large squid—aren't these common snacks found everywhere? Is there anything that truly speaks of Luanzhou's unique flavor? One would think that as night falls and the lights dim along the river, a captivating nightscape would emerge. But unexpectedly, the riverbanks have become the realm of barbecues and night markets, with smoke swirling and cooking fumes covering the stars. The so-called local-flavor DJs are incessantly noisy, deafening, accompanied by groups of drunken revelers, their howls echoing. Those wishing to quietly enjoy the night by the river are incessantly bothered by the night market stalls, leaving one speechless and sighing with regret. We wander the world seeking a pure land to experience the charm of ancient cities, but the trip to Luanzhou is undoubtedly a journey of disappointment. Unless one harbors a desire for barbecue and drinks, there is really no need to set foot in this place. However, the problems of Luanzhou are not unique. Across the world, many ancient cities, for the sake of petty profits, unscrupulously develop commerce, causing the historical and cultural atmosphere to gradually fade, and the charm of the ancient city to vanish. Visitors walking through them see only shops everywhere, but struggle to find a trace of ancient charm. Some believe that the development of ancient cities should prioritize protection and heritage. Only by remembering their roots can the charm of ancient cities remain forever, attracting visitors from all directions to linger and not want to leave. Alas! The ancient cities of the world should cherish and respect themselves, lest future generations lament outside the invisible walls.
