2009 : Luoyang World Philatelic Exhibition - Visit to Luoyang's "Ultimate Platform" 洛阳世界邮展 - 洛阳第一楼

2009 : Luoyang World Philatelic Exhibition - Visit to Luoyang's "Ultimate Platform"
2009 洛阳世界邮展 - 洛阳第一楼

During the 2009 Luoyang World Philatelic Exhibition break, I took a cab to the Luoyang City with a group of friends to take a stroll of the OLD city. The above building structure known to be the “Ultimate Platform" overlooking the ancient city of Luoyang has tall block walls constructed surrounding the city. The platform served as a security patrol station guarding the city . The entrance to the city would be closed during emergency.  It took many steps to climb up to the top of this platform.

2009年邮展期间,乘空档时间,邀了几个朋友 “打的” 到洛阳老城走一回。 攀上洛阳第一楼,高高在上眺望洛阳城。这一座几百年历史的城墙楼至今还保留得完好,让我们见证了中国古城门的风貌。
