One of the columned streets starting at the main gate of the city advances towards the city center and reaches the monumental gate (13m high today), after passing in front of the baths. During the period when the city area was made smaller due to the defense requirements, this monumental gate was made narrower by laying bricks inside of it (4th century) and served as the main entrance gate of the city.

Vespasianus monumental fountain is located next to the monumental gate. It was built on a podium having a height of 1 m. It is a fascinating monument with a round niche in its front side and two projecting parts on its both sides, each having two full and two half Korinth style columns. The arch of the central niche has an opening of 7m and is 15m high.
