Duiyue Gate, City gate in West Central District, Taiwan
Duiyue Gate features a round-arched entrance measuring 3 meters in width and rises 4 meters tall, constructed with cut coral stones and red bricks.
The gate emerged in January 1836 during the Qing Dynasty period as part of three gates built to expand Tainan westward toward the Taiwan Strait.
The gate received the designation of country-level monument, reflecting its role in preserving Taiwan's architectural and defensive heritage.
Visitors can explore the interior staircase leading to the top of the wall, providing views of the surrounding West Central District.
The base structure incorporates coral stone elements, which led to its alternative name as the Coral Stone Outer Gate.
