Architecture of Ali Qapu Gate

Ali Qapu Gate is connected to an octagonal space that contains two rooms where the guards were used to be there. Also, there are three other rooms on the west side of the door which are so large and seem they were for the guards. One of these rooms turn to Chai Khane (a room for drinking cup of tea) and the other one turned to Gheraat Khane (a room for reading) during the Qajar dynasty. The plinth of the gate is tiled and the rest of it is stucco. One of the windows overlooks to the yard and the other overlooks to the Sepah Boulevard.
