Hiking

The gate of the city with an arch was built in 71 AD. They connected two city walls. The height of the gate is about 6 meters. They were dedicated to the emperor Vespasian, whose statue was located in the central niche of the fountain next to the gate. The statue of the emperor has been moved to a museum in Berlin.

Hiking

The arched gate, often referred to as the city gate and located near the theater, was not part of the city fortifications, but served only representative purposes. It separated the colonnaded street leading from the city gate from another colonnaded street leading to the harbor.
