The historical status quo of the cross street in the old town of Luoyang;
Cross Street in the old city has been a gathering place for businessmen since ancient times. Since the founding of New China, it has also been one of the important business districts in our city, and now it is the gathering place of Luoyang snacks.
Li Jianhu, a grassroots scholar who studies the culture of the old city, recorded in his book Anecdotes of the Old Luoyang City that Dong Shoushan, a native of Nanguan, opened a restaurant at the crossroads. In the winter of 192 1, he expanded the facade, decorated inside and outside, added furniture, invited a famous chef and named it "Kyoto Wanjinglou Restaurant", which is the first high-end hotel in Luoyang.
Mr. Koubeisuo, a famous calligrapher in Luoyang, is 86 years old and has lived near Crossroads since he was a child. The old man recalled: Before the founding of New China, there were many restaurants in Cross Street in the old city, which were engaged in all kinds of cooking. Wang Yu, a native of Shuncheng Street, opened the "Sihaichun Restaurant" in Cross Street in the spring of 1935, which is famous for its exquisite materials, reasonable collocation and rich benefits.
In the early 1980s, Cross Street in the old city spontaneously formed a special snack market. Guo, deputy director of the Old City Management Committee of the Old City, said: "At that time, the snack market was spontaneous and chaotic, but there were many well-known snacks, such as Baiji Daomian, Liuji Noodle, Mung Bean Noodles, and Zhaiji Braised Cake. Now many specialty restaurants in Luoyang originated here. "
In Guo's impression, Cross Street has always been a gathering place for food. In addition to water mats and stir-fried dishes, there are snacks such as wonton, sweet noodles and paste noodles, which are the most smoky and warm.
At the end of 2000, due to the transformation of historical and cultural blocks in the old city, the specialty snack market here was temporarily closed. In 2009, after planning and upgrading, Cross Street Night Market returned with a new look.
In order to enhance the overall image of Crossstreet Night Market, the Old City Management Committee of the Old City has done a lot of work, such as visiting foreign food streets, inviting time-honored restaurants to settle in the night market, and uniformly managing Crossstreet Night Market.
