Porta Mariae, Memorial arch in Naga, Philippines.
The triumphal arch spans 18 meters in width and reaches 11 meters in height, featuring a central portal that accommodates eight people at once.
The Archdiocese of Cáceres commissioned this memorial arch in 2010 to mark three centuries of devotion to Our Lady of Peñafrancia.
The structure displays a brass figure of Our Lady of Peñafrancia at its summit, with four angels positioned alongside the central religious symbol.
Visitors can find the Porta Mariae on Barlin Street, directly facing the Naga Metropolitan Cathedral in the Camarines Sur province.
The arch incorporates three separate gateways, with the main portal flanked by two smaller entrances designed for ceremonial processions.
