The main western entrance to the old town, and the gate where the mob turns on Joffrey's party in the riot scene — the moment that ends with the High Septon torn apart. Today it is where every visitor and every tour group enters, which makes it the busiest thirty metres in the city. Go at eight in the morning and you can stand on the drawbridge with the place almost to yourself; go at noon in August and you will understand the riot scene from the inside.
