The Seven Star Gate, Pyongyang. The gate name refers to the Plough or Big Dipper constellation, meaning North Gate. Where walls were pulled down for electric car lines, some of the gates were preserved as historical monuments. The first shots of the land fighting at the beginning of the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) were fired from the top of this gate.
