"Cleopatra's Gate" in Tarsus, Turkey

While in Tarsus we stopped by "Cleopatra's Gate".  This gate marks the place where Mark Anthony escorted Cleopatra (dressed as Aphrodite) into the city after she sailed up the Cydnus River in her Royal Barge.
This is what is left of the wall and the gate at the west end of the city.
