This year, there are also familiar old friends who turned around and left, such as Xie Baiyuanhua by the West Lake, which closed business, and contracted the demolition of Zhoushan East Road in the north of the city, which contracted many people's "memories of the tip of their tongues in college......
Whether a new landmark appears or an old face returns, it is a footnote to the development of the times. "Qianjiang Evening News" is recording the feelings of these urban memories step by step, and also incorporating good wishes for future development.

【Longxiangqiao Bus Station, Victory Theater】
The West Lake complex is the "white moonlight" in the heart of old Hangzhou
West Lake, in the hearts of Hangzhou people, is not only a beautiful scenery, but also because it is layered with historical contexts, celebrity anecdotes, and is the "white moonlight" of generations of people, and has the strongest feelings for it.
This year, around the West Lake, many old feelings returned, and each return was the former "top stream"-
On March 31, the return of the top Longxiangqiao bus station in childhood: in 2011, in order to cooperate with the transformation of the commercial and tourism characteristic street in the lakeside area, the 37-year-old Longxiangqiao bus center station waved goodbye, and after 12 years, the 49-year-old returned again. Twelve years ago, it was just a station, and 12 years later, it has been transformed into a three-dimensional complex – a rapid change of times, sometimes just two pictures are needed to read.

On July 26th, the West Lake Music Fountain returned after a three-year absence, with a new interpretation of 4 songs in 14 minutes. Everyone's excitement is not to say, on the first day of the return, there were a lot of people by the West Lake, all wanting to witness the return for the first time, many people started a live broadcast, and "Raiders" and "Come on" became the most frequent sentences.
On December 2, two years after its closure due to renovation and upgrading, the Victory Theater, which was once the "top stream" of West Lake cultural life, returned. This theater, built in the 30s of the last century, was unveiled by the famous movie star Nguyen Lingyu when it opened that year. Now back in the world, on the wall is a photo of an old opera artist from 1955, and in the hall, there is a carved railing from the last century. There are traces of time everywhere, development context everywhere, and a new yearning for Hangzhou people who love to watch performances.
There are many top streams of Longxiang Bridge, not only because it is close to the West Lake, but also because in those years, the Longxiang Bridge bus station was the center, forming a bus transfer hub with a great passenger flow. Nowadays, Longxiang Bridge is also the nearest subway station to West Lake. This is the most marketable and authentic Hangzhou, and it is also the place with the most memories of old Hangzhou.

"The old days are coming back", what are we missing
On November 26, Qian Bao recorded a storm of memories ignited by the upcoming Western food boss "Haifeng". In the past moments, we can see what the citizens miss the most.
The Western-style dim sum chef misses his mother's kindness to his father, and the expensive steak at that time made the 50-year-old lady Zhu remember the youth of her first love...... And almost every old Hangzhou has its own past, which is located in Haifeng, but what is looking forward to is the reappearance of youth.
After the restart of the time-honored brand "Haifeng", there has been more takeaway business, and more importantly, it has recalled the youth memories of many Hangzhou people.

Feelings are always the same. In the "Qianjiang Evening News" "Qian Bao Circle of Friends" newspaper network interaction, reader Ms. Qiu sent a set of photos, which is the city life of Hangzhou that she checked in this year, and almost chased the top stream of these "returns": these pictures include the day of the return of the Eight Maidens Fountain in Wulin Square, the day of the return of the West Lake Fountain, the day of the return of the West Lake Fountain, the bus station to Longxiangqiao, and the boat ride at Wulinmen Wharf...... Ms. Qiu told reporters: "I am 48 years old this year, and I am a standard old Hangzhou. I like to go to these places because they have memories of my youth and youth. I'm curious to see what the scenery has become like back then. ”
Her favorite rejuvenation scenery is the Eight Maidens Fountain in Wulin Square, "When I sprayed again, I went to three noons in a row. ”
She remembers that on the first day she was facing the northeast corner, and before she could be moved, she was drenched in water by the fountain because she was standing downwind; For three days in a row, in three directions, I saw the fountain 360 degrees. ”
The reason why I love to see the fountain so much is that Ms. Qiu was often brought by her parents when she was a child, "Back then, this place was still called 'Red Sun Square', and this fountain was the rarest scenery when I was a child......

[The expectation of the return of the nostalgic top]
It is a new historical memory and a new life guide
For old Hangzhou, the return of every old building is a period of youth, and every time you check in, it is to say "long time no see" to youth.
Some of them return to a kind of life guide, just like some old Hangzhou people who are keen to whisper in the ears of newcomers to Hangzhou: "Old guy, I go here to buy things." ”
"I like to watch this kind of return news the most, it's just the secret of old Hangzhou life!" Xiao Chen, a post-95 reader, flipped through her New Year's shopping list, she pointed to the form and told reporters: "I can go to Jianqiao Omijiang Agricultural Products Exchange to buy seafood, where the predecessor was the Omijiang Aquatic Agricultural and Sideline Products Comprehensive Market, which has been open for 23 years. The newspaper said that many old merchants settled in the market when it opened!"
"In November, I also read the report on the return of the century-old sauce garden on Xiaohe Straight Street. During the Spring Festival, I plan to come here to buy sauce goods, and I also bring some sauce duck back to my hometown to buy from the century-old sauce garden, which has a lot of stories. This year, Xiao Chen also followed the report of the return of the West Lake Fountain and ate Longjing Jasmine Ice Soy Milk, which was in short supply, "It's delicious, the proprietress stall is not big, but there are a lot of fresh snacks." ”
At the end of the year, the news that the Zhejiang Library University Road Library had been renovated and reopened also made many people in Hangzhou know about this 92-year-old library. When the reporter went to pay a return visit, a reader stood in front of the bookshelf, looked out the window through the huge glass, and said, "What a window with a story." ”
The city is like this window, a storybook that is constantly updated...... In the story, there is always a place to put memories and feelings, maybe on a certain road, maybe in some kind of food, maybe in the "Qianjiang Evening News".
