Growing Guangzhou and Me —— On the Urban Changes of Guangzhou after 1980s (Liang Jingting)

When I was a child, I learned from The Legend of Wuyang that Guangzhou is a famous city with a long history. It is known as "Flower City" and "Land of Fish and Rice". Great changes have taken place in Guangzhou since the reform and opening up. Nowadays, the cultural connotation of Guangzhou has also infiltrated more exotic colors, and the local culture and foreign culture are closely integrated. The following are some fragments of my growing memory, but they have witnessed the changes of Guangzhou.

Guangzhou has always had the reputation of "food in Guangzhou". Let's start with the food culture in Guangzhou. Guangzhou in the 1980s was an antique city in my childhood memory. At that time, the bustling sections of Guangzhou were concentrated in the old city, and there were arcades on both sides of the street. People's material living conditions are not very rich, and there are not many places for entertainment. Teahouse was an important entertainment place at that time. At that time, the teahouse industry in Guangzhou was in a prosperous period. Every weekend or holiday, old Guangzhou people like to go to the "time-honored" teahouse to get together with relatives and friends. Although just tasting "one cup and two pieces" is not as colorful as today's life, simple life can also make people very happy. With the changes of the times, various western restaurants and "foreign fast food" began to enter Guangzhou. A large number of star-rated hotels integrating business, catering, accommodation and other elements have mushroomed, and the "time-honored" tea house industry began to decline, and some even closed down because it could not be maintained. Today, Guangzhou's food culture has been endowed with new connotations, including not only traditional Guangzhou snacks, but also foreign and domestic delicacies. The hotel has also incorporated more functions and more humanized services. These changes have given people more choices.

The 1990s was an important leap period for Guangzhou's traffic development. Traffic is the lifeblood of a city, which can shorten the spatial gap between people and make the relationship between people closer. Moreover, I think it is an important turning point for Guangzhou's traffic development to change from bus with tickets to bus without air conditioning. However, the completion of Guangzhou Metro is an important leap in the history of Guangzhou's traffic development. In the 1990s, the traffic problems in Guangzhou became very serious, and frequent traffic jams made it urgent to build a subway. 1June 28th, 997 is an unforgettable day for me. The first section of Guangzhou Metro 1 Line from Xilang to Huangsha Station was opened. 1 998 65438+February 28th, the remaining works from1Line-Huangsha Station to East Railway Station were all completed. Guangzhou finally has its own subway! At that time, like the general public, I was excited to take the 1 line. Over the years, in a short period of 10, Guangzhou Metro has successively built Line 2, Line 3 and Line 4, which run through the east, west, north and south of Guangzhou, greatly shortening the geographical gap between old and new cities. Guangzhou Metro is still building new lines, which will make the development of Guangzhou Metro go to another new milestone.

Time flies, and it has reached 2 1 century in a blink of an eye. Guangzhou has rapidly changed from an antique old city as a child to a modern metropolis today. The expansion of the city has led to the rise of new business districts such as Tianhe, Fangcun and Pazhou, making people's leisure shopping places no longer limited to old business districts such as Beijing Road and Shangxiajiu. Guangzhou's prosperity has brought her new opportunities: 20 10 Guangzhou succeeded in bidding for the Asian Games. The recruitment activities of volunteers in Asian Games venues and cities have received enthusiastic response from the general public. The city's supporting facilities are also being actively built for the Asian Games. It is our dream to hold the 20 10 Asian Games. Because of the dream, we struggle silently.

Looking back at history, we find that people in every era are quietly paying for the development of Guangzhou. No matter how the times change and things around us change rapidly, we have a belief that will never change, and that is, "Let Guangzhou have a better future!" "
