Speaking of the names of cities, the editor found that there are many cities in my country with nice-sounding names, such as Pu'er, Suzhou, Shangri-La, etc., which make people feel aroused when they hear it. It feels like a longing in the heart, but compared with these place names, the names of some places were originally very nice, but for some reason they were changed to names that make people laugh or cry.
The first one is Hefei. As the provincial capital of Anhui, netizens, including locals, have been speechless about this city more than once. Mainly because of its name, which directly affects the development of the city. Hefei used to be called Luzhou. Yes, it is the Luzhou that is described in poems. It is so poetic and sounds like such a beautiful place. But it was changed to Hefei. The meaning of it is hard to understand. Could it be that it was changed? Will the territory become wider and fatter in the future?
The development of Hefei was quite good in ancient times, especially during the Song Dynasty. It was the hometown of Mr. Bao. You said calling Hefei "Beautiful Hefei" always sounds a bit inconsistent, but calling it Beautiful Luzhou will make people convinced, so the name change was really a failure, and the locals expressed dissatisfaction. .
The second one is Jixi. Speaking of Jixi, this is a famous place in Heilongjiang. It is the largest coal city in Northeast China and has developed industry. The beauty and construction of Jixi are also delayed by the name. In recent years, I have not seen many netizens flocking to a city with such a name.
Because the name Jixi always sounds weird, which makes people want to complain. But there are really many beautiful scenic spots in Jixi, such as Crescent Lake, Zhenbao Island, Qilin Mountain, etc. Look at how well-chosen these names are. Why was Jixi City named like this? So Jixi is really a city delayed by its name.
The third one is a bit funny. The name of this city actually sounds a bit cute. It is Baotou. Speaking of the name of this city, it is really a combination of many things. Because it is located in Inner Mongolia, the name is so unique. This name is translated from Inner Mongolian. It should have been pronounced as Baoketu, which sounds pretty good. It is translated as "Land of Deers". For this reason, many netizens said that it would be better to transliterate it directly. Why translate it into Baotou? It's pretty nice to call it "Zhulu" or something like that, or just call it Bao Ketu.
