This gate was the main entrance of the four entrances to the city, before the expansion project symbolized by Hadrian's Arch. It is also the official entrance to the ancient site of Jerash. It is said to have been built in the 2nd century and has the particularity of being pierced directly into the city wall. The decorations of this monument are composed of sculptures of acanthus leaves, characteristic of this time. It inspired the construction of Hadrian's Arch. Do not miss the oil press on the left after the gate.
