How high was the star tower of Shang Dynasty in history?
There is no star tower in the historical songs of Shang Dynasty.

Legend has it that in order to please Su Daji, Zhou Wang built a tower for her. Because it is built very high, it seems that you can touch the stars in the sky when you stand on it, so it is named Star Tower.

This building is the tallest building in Zhou Wang, which was bewitched by da ji and built in Chao Ge. The Star Tower is not only high, but also consumes a lot of manpower and material resources. Zhou Wang and da ji and other concubines often drink and have fun in the Star Tower, which is euphemistically called being close to the gods.

Later, Zhou Wang was enchanted by Su Daji, and took off Bigen's heart on the Star Tower. Later, people renamed the Star-Picking Building as the Heart-Picking Building. Later, the high-rise building was damaged, and the foundation made of rammed earth had only one soil platform. So now people call the foundation of this star-picking building the star-picking platform.
