Hey, you know what? Paris, the city known as the capital of romance, was recently exposed by an Internet celebrity blogger? It's a sloppy, stinking picture, can you believe it?
overview
I have wandered the streets of Paris countless times in my dreams, imagining holding hands with my loved ones under the Eiffel Tower, feeling that unique romance. But reality gave me a resounding slap in the face.
In the video of the Internet celebrity blogger, the Champs-Élysées is full of homeless people, the Louvre is filled with an indescribable smell, and the subway platform is full of beggars. Is this really the Paris I have in mind?
I couldn't believe my eyes, my heart filled with disappointment and anger. I began to wonder if the romantic city that once fascinated me was just an over-glorified and exaggerated fantasy, but the reality was so cruel and unbearable.
However, just when I was feeling hopeless about Paris, a foreign female blogger named Ma Jia stood up to correct Paris. She explained the "chaos" in Paris in a subversive way that left me confused again.
Ma Jia said that the so-called "urine smell" is actually the unique "hormonal romantic atmosphere" of Parisians. She also explained that the homeless people in the subway are the embodiment of the "relaxation" of Parisians, and that the expensive public toilets are representative of Parisian retro design. This kind of design is actually designed to create an opportunity for couples to get in touch, which is really surprising.
I can't help but wonder if Maga has misunderstood the "romance" of Paris, or if she has been so bewitched by the "unique charm" of Paris that she can't see the truth?
No matter how you interpret it, the ubiquitous excrement and filth are facts that cannot be concealed. These phenomena not only damage the image of Paris, but also make tourists feel sick and uncomfortable. As a bustling modern metropolis, how can Paris tolerate such an environment?
I also understand that everyone has their own aesthetics and habits. Perhaps in Ma Jia's eyes, this kind of "freedom" and "casualness" in Paris is exactly what she appreciates. However, for most of us, this so-called "romance" is simply hard to accept.
I can't help but wonder if we are too subjective in imposing our own aesthetics and habits on others, and should we be more open and tolerant of different cultures and customs?
In any case, we cannot ignore the seriousness of the problem of urban sanitation in Paris. It's not just about the tourist's experience, it's about the image and reputation of Paris as a cosmopolitan city. If Paris's city managers fail to take effective measures to improve sanitation, the city will soon lose its attractiveness.
I have also noticed the efforts of some tourist cities in terms of environmental governance. For example, Xi'an, an ancient city in China, once faced serious environmental problems due to its large number of tourists and poor management. However, with the local government's intensified efforts to improve the environment, Xi'an has now taken on a new look, and the old city has been rejuvenated and revitalized.
Returning to the topic of Paris, I think Ma Jia's speech, although somewhat exaggerated and one-sided, also reminds us to look at different cultures and customs in a more objective and rational manner. We should also call on Paris's city managers to pay attention to environmental sanitation and take effective measures to improve it.
The author's concept
As an international metropolis, Paris has its own charm and attractiveness, but it also faces many challenges and problems. We should look at the city with an open and inclusive mind, but also hope that it will continue to improve and become a better place to live.
