西安門, Historical gate in Xicheng District, Beijing, China.
The Xi'an Gate features traditional Chinese architectural elements with a rectangular structure, sloped roofs, and ornate decorative details on its facade.
Built during the Ming Dynasty between 1370 and 1378, the Xi'an Gate formed an essential part of Beijing's defense system and western city wall.
The gate marks the eastern terminus of the Silk Road, commemorated by caravan statues erected in 1988 to honor the ancient trade route.
The gate opens daily from 8:00 to 17:00, with taxi services available for transportation to the site from central Beijing.
Visitors can observe the historical Silk Road path through the souvenir shop windows located within the gate tower.
