On Day 2 of our touring of Philadelphia, KT & Joe decided to explore on therir own and visited China Town where they took this picture of the famous "Friendship Gate". This many-colored arch ornamented with fire-breathing dragons and Oriental lettering was a joint project between Philadelphia and her Chinese sister city Tianjin. Chinese artisans completed the Friendship Gate in 1984 with materials brought from Tianjin.
