b	billy b on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Incredible piece of historic architecture. The scale and elegance.of this monument to welcome the emperor transports you to another age. Pollution has discolored the structure but it's still an amazing artifact I enjoy marveling at.
K	Karam on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You can see it while you are walking next to the temple of Zeus there is no fee/ Entry for it
C	Carsten Lexa on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very impressive! And make sure to check out the inscription, to get a little insight into the past and especally Hadrian's thoughts as he saw Athens developing.
A	Aleksander Johansen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Full of exciting Roman history to indulge yourself in. Bigger area than you would think prior. Private drivers charges ~15-20 dinar from Amman. If you plan for Petra, and are unsure, let me tell you this is well worth it. Assimilasjon you like Roman history ofc. Enjoy!
A	Anna Rohde on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Its a nice spot to take some photos with greek art for free, you can also make it interesting as there is many angles from which u can try. You can also come to it by accident when u go from Plaka district and the interesting fact is the writings on both sides. Good to see all in all, personally gave me happiness.
H	Heather Raposa on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Quick place to visit and free. We spent about 30 minutes, but that is only because of my passion for Ancient Civilizations and really trying to find what the normal usually don't spot. There is engravings on both sides of the arch: facing Acropolis: This is Athens, the ancient city of Theseus" While the other side facing the "new city" "This is the city of Hadrian and not of Theseus". Built by Atheanians to honor Roman Emperor Hadrian for his many contributions to the city of Athens during his rule but also was used a divider between "Old Athens" and Hadrians "New City".
K	Karl H. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a very nice gate. The entrance is free. Kids have fun around here. On a rainy day it even gives shelter! But you should come to Aachen - we have even nicer gates! Like the authentic Pontgate or the traditional Kármán-Tor!
