　　"Why are the robes fluttering? The light trains are returned by the wind." If you are looking for the beauties in Cao Zhi's poems, you will always gain something in Luoyang. Since 2023, Hanfu has become one of the most representative cultural symbols of Luoyang. Tourists here wear blue silk, appliqué, wear Hanfu, or stroll in the Grand Heritage Park, wander among antique buildings, or visit shopping malls, Take the subway, or cycle through the streets and alleys, and there is no sense of incompatibility between dreaming back to the millennium and "travelling" together.

　　In terms of its compatibility with Hanfu, Luoyang is almost “perfect” in the minds of many tourists. Historical data shows that the Heluo area is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization and the practice center of Hanfu etiquette in the Central Plains. King Ping of Zhou moved the capital to Luoyi and founded the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. He visited the Central Plains with rituals. Confucius traveled around the world and asked Luo for rituals.

　　In Chinese history, more than 10 dynasties have established their capitals in Luoyang. The ruins of Erlitou, Yanshi Shangcheng, the Imperial City of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the ancient city of Han and Wei, and Luoyang City of the Sui and Tang Dynasties are lined up along the Luo River, forming the "Five Capitals". Huiluo" trend. Three and six world cultural heritage sites, including the Longmen Grottoes, the Grand Canal of China, and the Silk Road, shine brightly.

　　Relying on the rich historical and cultural "family background", it seems that a spring breeze has come overnight. Hanfu experience centers will be opened all over Luoyang City in 2023, and Hanfu has also become a "top item" in the integration of Luoyang's culture and tourism.

　　At present, a full-chain industry of "Hanfu + styling + photography" has been formed locally. Taking Hanfu as a guide, from disruptive creativity to immersive experience, from youthful consumption to mobile communication, Luoyang Hanfu continues to "break out of the circle".

　　Among them, Longmen Grottoes, Luoyi Ancient City, Luoyang Museum, etc. have become popular places for tourists to wear Hanfu and check in, allowing the diversion effect of "Hanfu + Ancient City" to gradually emerge.

　　Currently, in order to promote the "traffic" of Hanfu to "retention" and "Internet celebrity" to "long-term popularity", Luoyang has begun to lay out the Hanfu industry, holding Hanfu competitions, Hanfu makeup training courses, establishing the Luoyang Hanfu Research Institute, and building a Hanfu industry. Park, standardize Hanfu business activities, etc.

　　In recent years, Hanfu has become Chen Jiahui's daily clothing, and she has met tourists one after another for the first time. People are always amazed by her clothes and makeup, which makes her happy and proud. In her view, wearing Hanfu is not only about catching up with the national trend, but also about tracing the origins and roots of traditional Chinese culture. "Hanfu is the culture that is worn on the body."

　　According to Song Chaoli, a researcher at the Institute of Literature (Yellow River Culture Institute) of the Henan Academy of Social Sciences, the craze for Hanfu reflects contemporary people's recognition of traditional Chinese culture, and also provides insights into how ancient China's profound etiquette culture can be interpreted through cultural tourism practices.
