Luoyang / Luoyi Ancient City

The street is entirely commercialized, both in terms of architecture and the commercial Hanfu experience. I'm not sure if I went on the right day, but I went on a Saturday morning, and almost all the shops were closed. It was actually quite deserted. Overall, it's a good idea to avoid it unless you want to take some beautiful photos in Hanfu. Otherwise, it's really deserted, and I don't feel like I can find any traces of history. The following is an AI-generated history of the ancient times: Early Western Zhou Dynasty: After King Wu of Zhou conquered the Shang Dynasty, he granted this area to his younger brother, Duke Zhou, who built the city of Luoyi here, marking the beginning of Luoyang's history. It became the capital of the Zhou Dynasty and was called "Chengzhou." Eastern Zhou Dynasty: King Ping of Zhou moved the capital here and renamed it "Wangcheng." Together with "Chengzhou" on the west bank, it formed Luoyi, becoming the political center of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Warring States to Three Kingdoms Period: During the Warring States Period, the name was changed to Luoyang. During the Three Kingdoms Period, "Luo" was changed to "Luo," a name that remains in use today. Sui and Tang Dynasties: Following the construction of the Sui and Tang dynasties, Luoyang's city expanded, and Luoyi Ancient City became a key neighborhood within it. In April 2017, the modern Luoyi Ancient City opened. Modeled after the Northern Wei Dynasty Luoyang City, it incorporates architectural styles from various dynasties to recreate the ancient capital's charm, becoming a comprehensive scenic spot integrating culture, tourism, and commerce.
