In my inner feelings, I always long for some classical feelings. I like to call some cities by their previous names, such as Lanzhou. Although the name Jincheng is a bit tacky, in the eyes of the ancients, it was named Jincheng, but it was the throat of the ancient Silk Road, an important military location in Lanzhou, the only way in and out of Qinghai-Tibet, and the ancient military strategic outpost of China. According to the theory of wealth, it is more appropriate to change its name to "Silver City".
