''Chinatown Gateway'' is an outdoor paifang and sculpture which serves as an entrance to Old Town Chinatown, Portland, Oregon, United States. The gate was proposed by the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association in 1984. Architect Yu Tang Wang and artist Sun Chau completed the gate's design, which was built by Ting Hwa Architects in Taiwan. It was then shipped to Portland and installed in one week before being dedicated in November 1986. It cost $256,000 and was the largest of its kind in the United States until one in Washington, D.C. was completed several months later. ==Description== ''Chinatown Gateway'' is located at the intersection of West Burnside Street and Northwest Fourth Avenue and serves as the official entrance to Portland's Old Town Chinatown neighborhood.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.travelportland.com/directory/chinatown-gateway/ )〕 It is tall and made of bronze, marble, granite, wood, tile and steel.〔 The gate features depictions of 78 dragons and 58 mythical characters. Chinese letters on the front and back read "Portland Chinatown" and "Four Seas, One Family", respectively.〔
