Sunset Over Gate Of All Nations

Persepolis, Iran

The Gate of All Nations or Gate of Xerxes is the construction that was ordered by the Achaemenid king Xerxes (486-465), the successor of the founder of Persepolis, Darius I the Great.
It consisted of a grand hall that was a square of approximately 25 metres (82 ft) in length, with four columns and its entrance on the Western Wall.
