Zhuquemen, City gate in Beilin District, China.
Zhuquemen gate features decorative eaves and stone carvings that demonstrate traditional Chinese architectural elements from the Ming Dynasty period.
The gate served as a strategic entry point to Xi'an, formerly Chang'an, connecting the city to major trade routes during multiple imperial dynasties.
The name Zhuque refers to the Vermilion Bird of Chinese mythology, representing the fire element among the four celestial creatures.
The structure stands within walking distance of several hotels and provides direct access to the Muslim Quarter's food markets and cultural sites.
During the annual Lantern Festival, hundreds of red lanterns illuminate the gate, creating patterns visible throughout the Beilin District.
