History and archaeology
Hadrian's Gate (Üçkapılar)
Muratpaşa, Antalya
A three-arched marble triumphal arch built to commemorate Roman Emperor Hadrian's visit to Antalya in AD 130.
Its story
Popularly known as Üçkapılar (Three Gates), the structure was built on the city wall in honor of the emperor's arrival in the city. The three-arched gate, with four marble columns on each of its two facades, is flanked by towers on either side. Its upper story has not survived; the lower story was uncovered again in 1882 and restored to its original form in a comprehensive repair in 1959. Today, as the only surviving entrance gate of the walls, it is the landmark point for entering Kaleiçi.
