    Built in the 12th century, the Golden Gate served as the entrance to the Vladimir city in the past. It is the only preserved ancient Russia city gate. The gate while serving as a monument to the city's historical past, wasn't really that interesting nor exceptional

    (Translated by Google) Very beautiful! Take your breath away! Inside the temple there is a small exposition, a beautiful view from above from the windows, a steep long staircase to the top. (Original) Очень красиво! Захватывает дух! Внутри храма небольшая экспозиция, красивый вид сверху из окон, крутая длинная лестница наверх.

    (Translated by Google) The only one of the five outer gates of ancient Vladimir, preserved to this day. Built by the craftsmen of Andrey Bogolyubsky in 1164. The Golden Gate served as the main entrance to the city, was both a defensive structure and a triumphal arch. Covered with sheets of gilded copper, shining brightly in the sun, the gate amazed the imagination of contemporaries. The structure is crowned by the gateway Church of the Robe. (Original) Единственные из пяти внешних ворот древнего Владимира, сохранившиеся до наших дней. Построены мастерами Андрея Боголюбского в 1164 г. Золотые ворота служили парадным въездом в город, были и оборонительным сооружением, и триумфальной аркой. Покрытые листами золоченой меди, ярко блестевшей на солнце, ворота поражали воображение современников. Венчает строение надвратная Ризположенская церковь.

    There's a long walk upstairs, but its worth it first a small tidy exhibit of the city history (there is great interactive panorama set there showing medieval town history). Also part of exhibit set for WWII pictures and documentary ( I guess for those that care)

    Beautiful The Golden Gate of Vladimir Russia. it is constructed between 1158 and 1164, is the only (albeit partially) preserved ancient Russian city gate. A museum inside focuses on the history of the Mangol invasion of Russia in the 13th century. Golden Gates existed in the holiest cities of Eastern Orthodoxy : Jerusalem, Constantinople, and Kiev. On making Vladimir his capital,

    it is war resort, it is a part of taiwan history. must visit. somehow different from Taiwan island. the sun is burning hot in summer, and extremeky windy in winter. Remember to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner at exact time. because returant only open at breakfast/luch/dinner hour. it is very difficult to find restaurants for lunch at 2:00, if you are away town, it is very different from taiwan island, you can food anywhere.

    The Golden Gate of Vladimir, built in 1158-1164 according to order of Duke Andrey of Vladimir and Suzdal (1111-1174) also known as Andrey Bogolyubsky (Godloving). There were only four Golden Gates in the world, in Jerusalem, Constantinople, Kiev and Vladimir. That gatehouse has over gate church atop. Here, from internal side, you Cann see the Icon of Virgin Mary with the Child over the passage. Leaves of the gate were covered with golden foliage and reflected golden light on the building. Golden Gate saw the assaults of Mongols under Batu Khan (? - 1255) in February 1238 and Tartars of Edigu Khan (1352-1419) in 1408. There is the Historical Museum inside.

    Zoloti Vorota. In English, it is defined as the Golden Gate but some people call it the City Gate of Vladimir. This is the gate to enter the city center where you can find many government administration buildings, art and performance buildings, hotels, Roman Catholic cathedrals, and various business centers of the city of Vladimir. If you have visited this gate, then you are considered legitimate to visit the city of Vladimir.

    It's the symbol of Vladimir. There are two important gates, the golden and the silver. The golden gate opens towards Moscow and the Silver towards Nishni Novogord. When St Vladimir established the city of Vladimir this were the limits and the huge wall fortified the city. During the Soviet time Vladimir became an industrial city with many factories and they have been moved to the out skirts of the city. So the city now is more serene and splendid.

    It was stunning to hear the following from my exquisitely dressed girlfriend: Typical! They built huge gates for their king to enter the city and left it quite unprotected from Mongol invaders breaking through city walls.
