Highlights

  • You will see two large central arches for vehicle traffic and two smaller pedestrian doors, with decorative niches and reliefs above.
  • The passage is compact and framed, so photo opportunities often focus on architectural details and the view through the arches.
  • The gate sits on the waterfront, with ferries and harbour activity close by and a set of steps that lead up into the city centre.
