The interface of the old city of Luohu, the lack of industry, the old broken and small gathering, the aging infrastructure and so on are indeed the reasons for Luohu's "backwardness".

Whether it is GDP or urban interface, the 40-year-old Luohu has indeed reached middle age. You know, in the early days of reform and opening up, Luohu was once synonymous with Shenzhen, and Luohu was Shenzhen. The first stock exchange in China, the first futures market in China, the first local commercial bank in China and the first McDonald's in the Mainland were all born here.

There are the International Trade Building, which represents the speed of Shenzhen, and a series of symbols representing memories, such as Wang Di Building, Vientiane City, Tianan Building and Dongmen Old Street. These are the pride of Luohu people and even Shenzhen. But 40 years later, Shenzhen, which was so excellent that year, was still "thrown out of a few streets" by the rapid development of Shenzhen.

Matching gradually aging

When the first McDonald's opened, people queued downstairs for many times, but now there is no door. Dongmen Old Street, once the favorite place for Shenzhen people to visit, has now become synonymous with cheapness and explosions. Wang Di Tower, built in 1995, used to be the tallest building in Asia, but now it has been surpassed. I used to cross Hong Kong from the only Luohu port, but now I can take the high-speed train directly to Hong Kong.

The uniqueness of Luohu has been gradually replaced, and it is no longer the most desirable place for everyone. At present, Luohu has the narrowest and most crowded roads, the least parking spaces and the largest population density. The elevator in Luohu old office building is aging, with insufficient height and lighting. There are also backward road network planning and aging municipal facilities. All these show that Luohu is really old.
