This historic gate is one of the last remaining city gates in North America. Built in the late 17th century and rebuilt in the 20th, it stands as a symbol of the old fortified city. The gate has seen centuries of history and is a key part of the city’s original defensive walls.
- The gate is most popular for its impressive stone architecture and as a photo spot with the city walls in the background.
- You can walk through the arch and see the old city from a unique perspective.
- At night, the gate is beautifully lit, making it a cool spot for evening strolls.
- See Real History Up Close: The gate is a rare example of old city defenses you can actually touch and walk through.
- Epic Photo Ops: The stone arch and surrounding walls make for awesome pics, especially at sunset or when the lights come on.
- Feel the Old City Vibes: Walking through the gate gives you a sense of what it was like centuries ago, with the same stones and views people saw back then.
- No ticket or booking needed, it's free to visit.
- No special dress code, but comfy shoes are a good idea since you'll be walking on old stone paths.
- Best time to visit: Late afternoon to evening for the best light and fewer crowds.
