Before discussing this issue, let's learn about the origin of Kaifeng night market. Kaifeng night market can be traced back to the Northern Song Dynasty, which is also the earliest night market in China history (in the Tang Dynasty, the night market was destroyed by the government when it just showed signs? During the Tang Dynasty, the city was forbidden at night. At that time, as the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, the capital city of Bianliang (Kaifeng) had developed economy and numerous shops (the riverside scene on Qingming Festival is the best proof), forming more than 20 catering markets of different sizes. "Tokyo Dream China" records: "The night market lasts until midnight (now 23:00? 1:00), it's only even (now 3:00? 5 o'clock) reopened. If you want to make trouble, stay up all night. " "Although it snows heavily and rains in winter, there are also night markets." This is a true portrayal of the night market in Bianliang at that time (the night market is open until evening 1:00, and then opens at 3: 00 in the morning. If it's a busy place, stay up all night, rain and snow still exist in winter) ?
Since the development of Kaifeng night market, although there are many kinds of business, it is mainly food, mainly engaged in Kaifeng's characteristic snacks and food from all over the country. Kaifeng night market has become a business card in Kaifeng, which is famous far and near. 1995 There are 17 night markets approved in Kaifeng. Today, except for the cancelled ones, the rest are still hot, which is the charm of Kaifeng night market. The night market culture has penetrated into the bone marrow of Kaifeng people. On a hot summer day, it has become the habit of Kaifeng people to have a drink in the night market. Visitors at home and abroad can learn about the Eight Dynasties through Kaifeng snacks and Kaifeng night market. ?
Of course, there are also some problems in the open-air night market, such as disturbing people, poor hygiene, pollution, traffic congestion and so on. In fact, these problems are not insurmountable It is suggested to strengthen the standardized management of the open-air night market and solve specific problems. For example, if there are a large number of residential areas around the night market, the business hours can be shortened (the collection time of Xia Dong in two seasons is stipulated), the sale is restricted, and tweeters are strictly prohibited; If there are few residents, consider removing the surrounding residents and drawing a specific area centered on the night market; Set up a leftovers collection area and ask the stall owner to clean up the garbage within the business scope in time, and impose heavy penalties if it is found to be irregular; If there is an open space around the night market, you can move into a nearby open space; Every night market has set up a complaint area to accept complaints from night markets. If there is a complaint, there must be a response, resolutely crack down on the act of slaughtering customers, and find them together and severely punish them; These are all methods, as the saying goes, methods are always more difficult.
Creating a good night market environment, creating Kaifeng's exclusive night market economy and culture, and retaining Kaifeng's only remaining achievements and night markets are also a kind of inheritance of Kaifeng culture.
