    The most regrettable cities to change their names are Huangshan, Linyi, Xi'an, Baoji and so on.

    1. Huangshan City.

    Huangshan City is a prefecture-level city in Anhui Province, the previous name of Huangshan City is not called this, but called Huizhou, the so-called Huizhou is the Hui of Anhui Province, the reason why Anhui Province is called this, is because there are two cities in the province, Anqing City and Huizhou, but Huizhou in order to improve the local economy, vigorously develop the tourism industry of Huangshan, it was renamed Huangshan City, indeed, the development of Huangshan City is indeed growing, but this is also a pity, many people still feel that Huizhou is better.

    2. Xi'an City.

    Xi'an is one of the important birthplaces of our Chinese nation, and it is also the city with the most capitals in the history of our country, there have been more than a dozen dynasties in history to build their capitals here, in the past, the name of Xi'an was not called Xi'an, but called Chang'an, and now there are many Chang'an derivatives, just like Han Han's ** "Chang'an Chaos" is the depiction of Chang'an, and there are many songs with the theme of Chang'an, in the hearts of many people who love literature and history, Chang'an is a holy place in the heart.

    3. Linyi. Linyi, Linyi is a prefecture-level city in Shandong Province, many people may not be familiar with Linyi this place, it may be clear that there is a more famous hospital in this city, but in fact, as long as you mention the previous name you must know, that is Langya, Linyi's ancient name is Langya, Langya can be said to be full of talents in history, Zhuge Liang is the Langya people at that time, is one of the three major families of Langya, and now Linyi is named after the Linyi River in Linyi City, naturally, The name Langya also sounds more charming.

    4. Baoji. The ancient name of Baoji city is called Chencang, Yongcheng, Xiqi, etc., and it is a city with strong cultural heritage. None of these names are more literary than the name Baoji.

    Han Xin's famous plan of "repairing the plank road in the bright and secretly crossing Chencang" happened here, and "secretly crossing Chencang" has also become a well-known idiom. But it is said that Tang Xuanzong was saved by two pheasants in the Anshi Rebellion, and Xuanzong said that Chen Cang was a "treasure land god chicken", and Chen Cang was renamed after that.

    1. Xi'an and Chang'an.

    As one of the important birthplaces of Chinese civilization and the Chinese nation, the starting point of the Silk Road, Xi'an has more than 10 dynasties in history to build their capitals here, so this historical civilization city in Xi'an has many city names in history, among them, we are most familiar with and the most deeply remembered is Chang'an. The name of the city of Chang'an was not set by the Tang Dynasty, but was established in the Qin Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty restored the name of "Chang'an". In the Qin period, Xi'an was called "internal history", and in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bangding was the capital of Guanzhong, and the new city was named "Chang'an", which means "long-term peace and stability".

    After the opening of the Silk Road, "Chang'an" was the starting point of the Silk Road and became the center of oriental civilization. Later, when he came to the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui renamed "Chang'an" as "Daxing City". It was not until the Tang Dynasty that the name of "Chang'an" was restored.

    With the change of dynasties and the development of history, the name of Chang'an was changed again, and the name of Xi'an was settled in the Ming Dynasty and is still used today.

    2. Huangshan and Huizhou.

    The name of Huangshan is easy to confuse the Chinese people, that is, is it the Huangshan Scenic Area or the Huangshan City? Many people will think that the Huangshan Scenic Area is Huangshan City. In fact, there is nothing wrong, after all, Huangshan has been a scenic spot since ancient times, and it is the Huangshan City that has the scenery of Huangshan first, and the name of Huangshan City is also because of the Huangshan Scenic Area.

    But at the beginning, Huangshan City was not named this name, but was called "Huizhou", a place where famous Huizhou businessmen went out all over the world, and it was also a gathering place for Huizhou culture. Huizhou has a profound historical and cultural heritage, and the origin of the name of Anhui Province is also related to it, and the name of Anhui Province is taken from the name of Anqing Mansion and Huizhou Mansion. Huangshan has belonged to the jurisdiction of Huizhou since ancient times, Huangshan is in Tunxi, Anhui Province, in order to better develop the tourism economy, Huangshan Scenic Area has been the movable sign of tourism in Anhui Province since ancient times, so Huizhou has changed its name to be easier for everyone to be familiar with "Yellow Mountain".

    3. Hefei and Luzhou.

    As the capital of Anhui Province, Hefei has a very simple name, because it is named after the East and South rivers originating from this place. Hefei is an ancient cultural city with a history of more than 2,000 years, and its original name was "Luzhou". From Qinzhi County, Sui to Ming and Qing Dynasties, Hefei County belongs to the jurisdiction of Luzhou Prefecture, so it is called "Luzhou".

    After the liberation, Hefei was officially changed to a county, and it was not until 1952 that Hefei officially became the capital of Anhui Province, ending the history of Anqing City as the capital of Anhui Province for more than 200 years.

    Chang'an - Xi'an. Xi'an was originally called Chang'an, the starting point of the Silk Road, the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, the ancients called it Chang'an is not unreasonable, Chang'an means long-term stability, now renamed Xi'an, without the charm of Chang'an, sorry now when it comes to Xi'an, I can only think of Xi'an meat sandwich bun, sigh.

    Runan - Zhumadian. Runan means "south of Rushui", which is a place of outstanding people since ancient times, and is the hometown of Yuan Shao, the "fourth world and three dukes". Zhumadian used to be a small place under the jurisdiction of Runan District, because people and horses were often parked, so it was named Zhumadian.

    Later, Zhumadian City was established, and the Runan area was transformed into Runan County.

    Luzhou - Hefei. I often hear a saying: Luzhou, which is extremely beautiful, why should it be renamed "Hefei" that has become soil to slag?

    In fact, during the reign of Qin Shi Huang, it began to be called Hefei. Luzhou is the name of the house in ancient times, although it sounds good, but there is no "Hefei" sounds blessed, we accept the name Hefei!

    Huizhou - Huangshan. Since Huizhou was renamed Huangshan, it is true that the local tourism popularity has continued to rise. In fact, Huizhou is a representative of culture, Huizhou cuisine, Huizhou merchants, Huizhou architecture and so on are all derived from this.

    In my opinion, excluding the tourism factor, the place name Huizhou is more representative.

    Binh Duong – Linfen. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Pingyang can be described as famous throughout the country, because it is the hometown of the Empress Wei Zifu of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the great Sima Weiqing, and the general Huo Quai, and the sister of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was called Princess Pingyang because she married the Marquis of Pingyang, but after changing her name to Linfen, it seems that there is no sense of history.

    Jinling - Nanjing. Jinling is one of the most elegant nicknames in Nanjing, and legend has it that King Chuwei built Jinling Yi in Stone City, from which the name of Jinling comes from. We are familiar with the twelve hairpins of Jinling, and the ...... of Jinling Phoenix TerraceWait, if the name is changed to Nanjing, it is actually quite awkward.

    Yongjia - Wenzhou. Those who are familiar with literature and history should know that Yongjia is too shou Xie Lingyun, that's right, Yongjia here is now Wenzhou City. Comparatively speaking, I think Yongjia is more civilized.

    Yuzhou - Chongqing. The ancient poem "Sijun does not see Yuzhou" in Yuzhou, which is today's Chongqing, seems to be more sensitive.

    The name of a city represents the culture of a region and needs to be both catchy and impressive. We all know that our country has a long history, and some cities in history have also undergone name changes, some of which have been very successful, but some of which have become classic cases of failed name changes. Here are 3 places that make me feel sorry after the name change:

    1. Zaozhuang.

    Whenever I see the name of Zaozhuang, people feel that the jujube red everywhere rushes into view. Zaozhuang is a city that relies on the development of mining, the previous name was Lanling, and it is also famous for the King of Lanling, the King of Lanling is a famous general in history, the Northern Qi clan, the name Lanling is very literary and artistic, and it is also very historical. Later, because of the many jujube trees, it was renamed Zaozhuang, which was originally a name full of aura, but after changing to Zaozhuang, it was inevitable that there would be some price drops.

    Lanling wine tulips, jade bowls filled with amber light, some netizens joked to change: Zaozhuang wine tulips, jade bowls filled with jujube light, Lanling King also became the king of Zaozhuang, and instantly a local flavor came to his face.

    2. Hefei.

    Hefei is the capital of Anhui Province, known as Luzhou in ancient times, the famous Bao Zheng in history, is from this Luzhou, and later got the name Hefei because of the confluence of the East and South rivers here, and the name is not wrong. It's just that in comparison, the name Luzhou is full of cultural flavor and more ancient. For example, let's talk about the name of this city, if it is called a talent, we think that Luzhou is a talent, it is very poetic, then if it is a Hefei talent, I feel that I have to gain two pounds.

    Xu Song's Luzhou month, how poetic, if it is changed to Hefei month, it will definitely sound like a full moon. In general, Luzhou is still more flavorful, Hefei is a little too down-to-earth, what do you think?

    3. Qi County.

    Qi County is now an obscure small place in the north of Henan, but its predecessor is the ancient capital of the famous Shang Dynasty in history, Chaoge, which has a history of more than 3,000 years and is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization. In addition to the song of the dynasty, it was also called Yage and Linqi, and it was changed from Qizhou to Qi County during the Ming Dynasty. Fifty miles of the night strings of the song, eight hundred princes towards the Ling Mountain.

    No one knows the origin of the name Chao Ge back then, maybe it was to sing the dawn and welcome the rising sun, or maybe it was the mountain of the Song of the Mountains and Seas, which should be named after it. No matter how you look at the name Chaoge, it has a sense of elegance, but Qi County is a bit unsatisfactory in comparison. It feels like it has changed from a big city to a small county town in an instant.

    Suzhou, Hefei, Zaozhuang, Xi'an, Zhumadian are the most regrettable cities to change their names. Historically, due to the changes and development of the times, many cities have changed their names several times. However, the name of a city brings people the impression of the first time, having a good name will help all aspects of the city, and some cities, after changing their name, have lost their original charm.

    Cities that are known throughout history have also changed. "Hanshan Temple outside the city of Gusu, the bell rings in the middle of the night to the passenger ship. "I believe everyone has heard this poem, the lonely and deserted Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, the sound of ringing the bell in the middle of the night came to my boat, expressing Zhang Ji's lonely and cold emotions.

    And Gusu is also familiar to people. And now, Gusu has changed its name to Suzhou, which makes it difficult to connect the relationship between the two. Chang'an, the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, just hearing this name, you can feel the classical charm of the majestic history, that is the mood of history, and now it has been renamed Xi'an, but it has eliminated some people's reverie about the historical charm of this city.

    Lanling is also a city that contains charm at first reading, but now it has been renamed Zaozhuang and has lost its "fairy energy".

    The city was changed so that people can't hear the original name. Zhumadian, listening to this name, will everyone who does not understand it think that the name is related to horses in history? In fact, it is a prefecture-level city in Henan Province and an important place for the development of civilization in our country, and can you think of its original name?

    Runan. Is there simply no way to link the temperament of these two names? In fact, the same is true of Hefei, which is also known as Luzhou, and in history, there are many poems about Luzhou.

    The times are developing in a good direction, and I believe that this place will also be given new meaning by time. Whether it is the place name full of ancient charm in the past, which is worthy of our experience, or now, the times have changed with a new name, and the good development of a city will not be left behind, and I believe that every city can get better and better.

    No. Old place names are not only basic geographical information indications, but also an important carrier of cultural memory, with rich local customs, human customs, historical events and other accumulation. The old place name is not only a living memory of a place, but also the emotional sustenance of the local people's strong nostalgia.

    The protection of old place names is to preserve the memory and emotion of the city, which is conducive to enhancing people's sense of cultural identity, belonging and pride in the city. It is of great significance to preserve, protect and continue these old place names in urban renewal, and further excavate the stories behind them and inherit the profound historical context they carry, which is of great significance for highlighting the local historical and cultural characteristics, enhancing cultural self-confidence, and promoting the development of cultural tourism. Do not change the old place name at will, not simply retain and continue the place name, but by polishing the old place name, the city cultural business card, the engraved nostalgia, the flowing local taste, the precipitation of the urban context, the heavy cultural value, are integrated into modern life, so that the old place name glows with the new meaning and new vitality of the times, in order to further promote the historical style, condense and inherit the traditional culture, leave the weight and temperature of history in the renewal of the urban texture, and glow the light of cultural inheritance.

    No. First of all, I think that the old place name was taken with the beautiful vision of the predecessors, and since it has been used for so long, it is best not to change it unless there is some special reason.

    Secondly, I think that the old place name has also become the memory of many people, and this name is a hometown that many people are proud of. Let's take another country's example, Stalingrad, this name is undoubtedly the name engraved in the genes of the older generation of Russians, a city without which the German army would "sweep across Europe", this name is undoubtedly the pride of an era, imagine how proud a Soviet veteran who has just finished the Great Patriotic War should be when he said the five words "Stalingrad" when he introduced himself to his friends? Only the name "Stalingrad" will be recorded in the history books.

    I was born in Tsaritsyn, I lived and raised in Stalingrad, I died in Stalingrad, but my descendants pay their respects to me in Volgograd." So there isGreat historical significanceI don't think the name of the place should be changed.
