Strolling through the ancient city of Anqing at night

Anqing is the hometown of the poet Hai Zi, who once wrote a poem for Anqing, and it is the only one: A dawn of five years old, a horse of five years old, you sit facing the river, drifting everywhere, to the girl who knows nothing of the world, to the restless aunt in the center of Anqing city, asking about you, talking about you, it might be a sister, or it might be an elder sister, it might be a marriage connection, or it might be friendship. This poem is written on a wall in the ancient city of Anqing, countless people pass by and stop to read it, but how many can truly understand the poet's feelings at that time? The ancient city of Anqing was founded during the Tang Dynasty and has gone through the changes of the Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing, and other dynasties, forming a unique urban pattern. The streets within the ancient city crisscross, and the ancient architectural complex is well-preserved, such as the Anqing Prefecture and Anqing County Yamen, which are witnesses to Anqing's historical culture. Walking through the alleys of the ancient city, the mottled stone roads record Anqing's tortuous and rich legendary history. The century-old shops are lined up in close succession, and by simply walking into one, you can taste the unique flavors of Anqing's cuisine. The thick atmosphere of life in the ancient city and the faint taste of old-fashioned food make people linger and reluctant to leave.
