Zuo' an Street, the Youth Palace Square in the old city, is a three-dimensional parking lot under construction. From the outside, it may be completed soon.
The Youth Palace in the old city needs to add another landmark building.
I am not a native of Luoyang Old Town. I lived in Xigong District when I was a child, and I moved to Youth Palace Square for almost seventeen years.
In the late 198s, I rode my bike to and from school. With transportation, the radius of my tour was constantly increasing. The Youth Palace in the old city is a place I often go to.
I often go to this place because it is fun and interesting.
At that time, there were two cinemas in the Youth Palace. The one next to Zhongzhou Road was called the People's Cinema, and the one behind it was the People's Hall.
Behind the People's Cinema, there are one or two facade rooms, almost all of which are video halls, dance halls, billiards halls, electronic game halls and many chess and card rooms.
The Youth Palace gathered many "players" at that time, including mahjong masters and poker players. The "Youth Palace Player" was very famous. When you heard this name, you knew that you were a poker player.
There are also many snacks here, and almost everything that can be eaten in the market can be found here.
Every night, this is the place where hormones explode. The gate of the cinema is crowded with people waiting to check in. Those who haven't bought the tickets are eagerly waiting for their tickets to be refunded, and often see a scene where a group of people rob them.
The video hall in the back is also full, and many of them are all through tickets. From the doorway, the advertisements posted are gun battles between Hong Kong and Taiwan and three-level movies. Later, it developed to the point where porn was shown after midnight. At three or four o'clock in the morning, the lights were brightly lit here, and snack vendors usually didn't play abroad until dawn.
People who come to the Youth Palace are mixed, and there are all kinds of people in the society. At that time, there was a bathhouse in the Youth Palace. People who had bathed often drank in the bathhouse. Some people would buy mutton kebabs through high glass windows, which cost five yuan each time. For people of that era, it was definitely a rich man. Most of these people were thieves.
In the Youth Palace, you can often see famous intruders and women in strange clothes at that time, and many dating places for men and women are also here.
Later, the Youth Palace was rebuilt and the present square was built. There were two stone lions in the square. I realized that the Youth Palace in its previous life was the site of Fu Wangfu in Ming Dynasty, and now only two big stone lions in Fu Wangfu are left to guard this place.
Now, the Youth Palace Square is still so lively, but it has almost become a world for middle-aged and elderly people.
In Luoyang, the old town is the place that retains the most historical charm. In the old town, the Youth Palace Square is the best place to show the historical changes.
