Former Gate of National Cheng Kung University, University gate in Daxue Village, Tainan, Taiwan.

The gate features two black xumi pedestals supporting a white archway, with an abstract cloud motif adorning the lintel of the structure.

Built in 1956, this entrance marked the institution's transition from Taiwan Provincial College of Engineering to Taiwan Provincial Cheng Kung University.

The structure combines Western architectural principles with Chinese elements, incorporating the golden ratio of 1:1.61 in its opening dimensions.

Located at an intersection of University Road, the gate connects the university's Cheng-Kung campus to the nearby Tainan Railway Station.

Professor He Chen-tse from the Architecture Department designed this gate with precise proportions, including an overall height-to-width ratio of 1:1.25.

Location: Daxue Village
