Princes' Gates, Triumphal arch at Exhibition Place, Toronto, Canada
This monumental gateway extends 350 feet in length, featuring a central Roman arch with nine Doric columns on each side representing Canadian provinces.
The structure, completed in 1927, was inaugurated by Edward, Prince of Wales and Prince George, leading to its current name Princes' Gates.
The central arch displays carved poppies underneath, while the Winged Victory statue at the top holds a laurel and maple leaf, symbolizing Canadian heritage.
The gates mark the eastern entrance to Exhibition Place, where the Canadian National Exhibition takes place annually during late summer months.
The structure includes four corner sculptures holding beehives and cornucopias, created by Charles Duncan McKechnie using twelve tons of material.
