Wringin Gate Temple

I purposely look for heritage sites kingdoms in East Java, especially in urban areas Mojokerto. Lots of Majapahit Trowulan kingdom relic as the photos I've taken this A-shaped gate and called Wringin Lawang in the sense of the Java language.
I arrived at the venue overcast but the air was very hot there is a sense of fatigue of having to walk while searching for a good angle. And while there are plenty of visitors who flock that makes me more tired to wait lonely visitor.
Sometimes the Indonesia annoying if someone else took their pictures as if no matter accidentally passing in front of the camera so that it covers the intended subject. Sense of respect for others has vanished in Indonesia since the times of globalization and technology are sometimes misleading. Television footage in Indonesia is not much to educate even more out of control in terms of social and environmental worsening behavior of young people in Indonesia.
Wringin Lawang gate is a gate relics of the Majapahit kingdom the 14th century located in Jatipasar, District Trowulan, Mojokerto, East Java, Indonesia. The building is located a short distance to the south of the main road in Jatipasar.
In the Java language, Wringin Lawang means 'Door banyan'.
This great arch made of red brick with a basic 13 x 11 meters and 15.5 meters high. Probably built in the 14th century. Gate-style temple is commonly called moment or split gate type. The architectural style is thought to arise as Majapahit era and is now commonly found in Balinese architecture. Most historians agree that this gate is the entrance to the complex important buildings in the capital city of Majapahit. Allegations about the original function of the building is inviting a lot of speculation, one of the most popular is the gate is thought to be the entrance to the residence of Gajah Mada Mahapatih.
