Porta septemtrionalis njihov je rimski naziv. Kroz njih je car Dioklecijan kročio u Palaču 1. lipnja 305. godine. Građena su u obliku četverokuta, s dvostrukim vratima, kao dio obrambene vojne taktike (propugnaculum).

Pročelje je dekorirano nišama u kojima su figurirale skulpture četvorice tetrarha (Dioklecijan, Maksimijan, Galerije i Konstancije Klor). Ovim vratima, kroz koja je od Peristila, ulicom Cardo, put vodio direktno prema Saloni kao glavnom gradu rimske provincije Dalmacije, smio se koristiti samo car i članovi njihove obitelji. Danas su s obližnjim spomenikom biskupu Grguru Ninskom, radom velikog hrvatskog kipara Ivana Meštrovića, jedna od omiljenih splitskih turističkih točaka.

Pod utjecajem Venecije vrata u 16. st. mijenjaju naziv u Porta Aurea, ili Zlatna vrata, što se održalo sve do danas.

This gate is located at the Northern side of Diocletian's palace. It offers a grand entrance to the palace. The architectural design of this gate is magical. Though it has been modified over the years, it still stands out. Its history is pretty impressive. I visited this place and it is surrounded with great historical places and sites.

Golden gate park is the largest man made park in the world, it's a must go place whether you are visiting San Francisco or a local. Some of the things we did there included biking from one end to another, seeing the de Young museum and the Academy of science during their free days, saw the buffalo in their enclosure, and had lunch at china town.

Lovely landmark that is an entrance to the fortress. It has a beautiful and fascinating architectural structure that is eye catching. It has a wall that we enjoyed the sight of as we went cycling around the place and loved our tour. The gate is phenomenal and has a great historical story that enlightens more about the place and many other awesome things. The design is unique that give a different touch of a genius work of art that is beautiful.

Its roman design is fabolous, its colour also blends with it making it more beautiful. There are also less crowds so anyone looking to visit will enjoy.
