Description on Panmen Gate, Suzhou
Panmen Gate, Suzhou
Visitor Rating:
Pan Gate is an ancient city gate with land and water entrances. Once, a gate with land and water entrances was quite typical in ancient China. Much restored, this is one of the last remaining land and water gates in China, once a vital part of Suzhou’s defences. The city wall, towers and gates form a nice scenic area.The view from the top across the town’s rooftops and distant pagodas, is all the better because of strict local rules regarding building height and design.
