The Portas da Cidade are iconic 18th-century city gates in the heart of Ponta Delgada.

Made from dark volcanic rock, these three arches are a postcard image of the city, located in the bustling Praça de Gonçalo Velho.

It's an ideal spot for a stroll, offering great photo opportunities, especially when illuminated at night, and a chance to appreciate classic Azorean architecture.
