Well done, But The pic needed to be more little bigger in size.
The Zuweila Gate constructed at A.D.1092.
Consists of two towers each of which has a semicircular facade. The two towers are linked by an open roof passage leading to the interior and eventually to an open space square. A shallow dome supported by spherical triangle pendentives, or sections of vaulting, covers the square.
In the eastern part of that space there is a deep ingress within a cross form supporting a semi-cupola that tops a curved rayed astragal, or narrow convex molding. Two thirds of the portal towers are of massive structure. The upper third includes a defense chamber. On the upper part of the towers' facade there are three loopholes. A room occupies the upper third of each tower and overlooks the entrance of the portal.
