Introduction to the Dianjiang Platform: The Dianjiang Platform is located on the top of the city wall between the Upper East Gate and the Lower East Gate. It is now a high brick platform. According to legend, after King Xuan of Zhou came to the throne in 827 BC, he sent General Yin Jifu to lead his troops in the Northern Expedition against the Yangtze River, and won consecutive battles. Later, he was ordered to station troops in what is now Pingyao, build additional city walls, and train soldiers and generals to practice martial arts here. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, in order to commemorate Yin Jifu's achievements, people built the Gaozhen Temple at the place where Yin Zeng ordered the military parade. When the city wall was being repaired in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the "Gaozhen Temple" was integrated into one. It is a broad platform on the top of the city. It is refreshing and refreshing to climb up and look into the distance. The poem says: "The platforms are hundreds of feet long and connected to the county town. In front of the battlements where Jifu Xun is named. Block grass. The battle fortress has been gone for a long time, and the dragon flag is timidly coming out of the car year."
