Nanning is very beautiful. Tell me about it.

20 13 in order to be closer to home, I resigned from Nanchang and went back to Nanning to look for a job.

Standing in the chaotic bus terminal in Dashatian, I heard the voice of the electric car master calling passengers and the noise of subway line construction from time to time.

Now, five years have passed quickly, and two subway lines have been opened in Nanning, and the other three lines are under intensive construction. The manhole area where I work has long been full of high-rise buildings and a busy scene.

As the provincial capital, Nanning bears the expectations of too many Guangxi people. From the national strategy of Beibu Gulf development to the grand hosting of the World ASEAN Expo, Nanning, as the core city of Beibu Gulf Economic Development Zone, is moving towards prosperity.

Nanning, a famous southern city with a long history, beautiful scenery and picturesque scenery.

Here, mountains, rivers, lakes, streams, trees and flowers complement each other, and trees are shaded all year round, and flowers and fruits are fragrant, so it is known as "Garden City" and "Green Capital of China".

Most foreign tourists who don't know much about Nanning come to Nanning to play. The basic route is this: in the morning, they relax in Qingxiu Mountain, which is full of green lungs and overlooks the center of Nanning. Then, after coming out of Qingxiu Mountain, it was noon, and they went to Zhongshan Road Snack Street for lunch. In the afternoon, visit the National Museum of Guangxi, and then enjoy leisure and water color in Nanhu Park. Go to Genting for sightseeing at night and overlook the beautiful night view of Nanning.

Since Nanning was founded, the city has gone through the vicissitudes of 1680 years. In the eighth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty (AD 634), Emperor Taizong named it Yongzhou, and Nanning was called "Yong" for short.

In ancient times, Nanning belonged to the "Land of Hundreds of Leaps", and two branches of it, Ou and Luo Yue, were the ancestors of Nanning Zhuang, and later developed into the largest minority in China.

Nanning has been a famous commercial port and main material distribution center in southern China since ancient times. Because it is located at the junction of the economic circles of South China, Southwest China and Southeast Asia, it is also an important economic center along the Beibu Gulf coast and an emerging hub city for the southwest sea passage.

Nanning plays a supporting role in the coastal cities of Guangxi, a connecting role in the economic circles of South China and Southwest China, and an opening role in the frontier cities of China facing Southeast Asian countries by virtue of its geographical advantages of facing Southeast Asia, relying on the southwest and being adjacent to Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao.

Because it is not too cold in winter, coupled with the unique subtropical climate in Nanning, people in this city have formed a unique way of traveling-cycling. This city was once called "the city of motorcycles", but its population of seven million owns half a million motorcycles, and there are countless traffic accidents caused by motorcycles every year. Later, due to air pollution and the need of urban management, motorcycles were banned in Nanning urban area and replaced by electric bicycles. Now, there are 2 million electric donkeys in Nanning.

Nanning has changed from a "city of motorcycles" to a veritable "city of electric bicycles".

When I first came to Nanning, traffic lights such as crossroads were often shocked by the huge flow of electric bicycles, and countless "electric donkeys" were ready to go, waiting for the green light to pass.

Many people laughed and said that Nanning is like an angel with broken wings without electric bicycles, which shows the importance of electric bicycles to this city.

However, the popularity of electric donkeys has also brought many problems, such as littering, stealing batteries, running red lights, driving without a license and so on. The popularity of battery thieves who claim that going to jail is more fun than going home has left many people helpless.

Walking on the streets of Nanning, the most common ones are all kinds of powder shops, snail powder, old friend powder and sour powder, with various tastes. If you don't taste the powder in Nanning once, you will come for nothing.

It is conservatively estimated that there are 26,000 noodle shops in Nanning, and some delicious shops even have to wait in line to eat.

Besides, there are many supper stalls here. On a hot summer night, the high temperature faded during the day, and the streets and alleys of the city began to be crowded with people, who came out to go shopping. The richness of nightlife is comparable to that of Guangdong.

Nanguo Street, specializing in midnight snack and all kinds of beef offal;

Yuanhu Road, which is not sleepy and has porridge to drink in spring, summer, autumn and winter;

There are fish, shrimp, shells and oysters in Zhongshan Road Food Street.

……

Just listing these snacks has made people drool.

Oh, yes, there are also Nongyuan Road and Chaoyang Road. One is a holy place for young people to go shopping and relax, and the other is a favorite shopping paradise for girls, where they can go shopping and eat all day.

Wandering in this southern city, with the rapid development of this city, more and more villages in the city have been eliminated. Perhaps one day, the old streets with the characteristics of the old city, such as Water Street, will gradually disappear and be replaced by towering office buildings and commercial houses.

On that day, will people in this city walk in the street view of this city with a little sadness and nostalgia like me?

Nowadays, places like Tingzixu, which represent Nanning's human history and urban personality, have gradually declined and disappeared. The rising wuxiang new district and the subway extending in all directions are impacting every old corner of the city. The wheel of historical development is constantly crushing, burying the loneliness of the older generation, which makes people sad.

The old dream in the south of the city is gone forever.

Nanning is losing some precious things in the process of urbanization. These histories and the past can only be sealed in our hearts, and future generations can only recall the stories that happened here through vague old photos.

There are many strange contradictions in the development of the city. There is a balance between pursuing development and protecting tradition. People hope that it can keep the old streets and lanes, but they are worried that it will be left behind by the modernization process. Only a lively snack stall on a summer night can soothe people's hearts.

In this city full of fireworks and self-satisfaction, what have you gained and lost? Is the roadway you miss most? Or the man I haven't seen for a long time?
