Taipei North Gate

Constructed in 1884, Taipei North Gate (Chinese: 臺北府城北門), formally Cheng'en Gate (Chinese: 承恩門), is the best-preserved gate of the Walls of Taipei, and is a National Monument of Taiwan. [1][2][3] Important in the Qing layout of the city, restoring it to visual prominence in the city has been a feature of recent urban planning. [4] [5] It gives its name to Beimen metro station.
