“治世玄岳”牌坊, Ming Dynasty stone memorial archway in Danjiangkou, China

The Zhishi Xuanyue Memorial Arch stands 11.9 meters tall and 14.5 meters wide, featuring four pillars and five tiers of stone construction.

Built in 1552 during the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, this memorial arch underwent restoration work in 1755 during the Qianlong era of Qing Dynasty.

The stone structure displays imperial inscriptions on both sides with characters meaning 'Governing the World at Mount Xuan' bestowed by Emperor Jiajing.

The memorial arch received national protection status in 1988 and remains under the administration of Wudang Mountain Tourism Economic Zone.

The stone archway incorporates wooden architectural elements into its design, creating a fusion between traditional wooden and stone construction methods.
