the "Giant Gates", or Eastern Gates, were built between 1806 and 1835. They are the oldest in the city. An arched passageway with 6 domes leads into the old town. To the left of the gates, facing Ichan kala, stood the slave market. Set back, in the niches on either side of the corridor, slaves who had tried to escape were chained while awaiting their sentence: it was opposite these gates, in front of the market, that the condemned were beaten or put to death!
