Circassian Gate
On my frequent trip to Ecuador one of its parks in the city of Quito, this monument has by name La Puerta de La Circasiana, called my attention and I wanted to take a picture of it both during the day and at night.

La Puerta de La Circasiana, (a stone arch 8 meters high with Renaissance engravings, with details of the bas-relief "La Despedida de los Centauros" that in past times was the entrance door to the Palace of the same name), also known as Arco de La Circasiana, is a triumphal arch monument of the city of Quito D,M, capital of Ecuador. It is located in the center of the northern flank of El Ejido Park, where it ends on Amazonas Avenue. It originally served as the gateway to the gardens of the Circasiana Palace of the Jijón y Caamaño family, located on avenues 10 de Agosto and Colón in the northern center of Quito.
