Zhengyangmen Gate is the historic city gate that is located at the south end of Tiananamen Square. It is one of nine gates of the inner city wall. Visitors can visit the museum in the complex and enjoy diagrams and pictures of the old city.

The Jian Lou gate (i.e. Arrow Tower) is situated directly across the street (Qian Men Dajie) from Zhengyangmen Gate. The Tiananmen East Metro Station is located nearby.
