Introduction to the main gate: The main gate is built according to the mountain and stands in the shape of the mountain. There is a majestic unicorn on each side of the entrance, which is 6.8 meters high, 5.8 meters long and 2.7 meters wide. The Qilin on the left stepping on bamboo paper represents "Wen", and the Qilin on the right stepping on a sword represents "Martial". One Wen and one Wu are auspicious. The gate has three levels and 35 steps. In the middle is a 28-meter-long and 4-meter-wide "Kowloon Royal Road". In the middle of the royal road, there are nine relief sculptures of dragons with different expressions galloping in the clouds and waves. The gate is rectangular in plan, imitating the form of an Hui-style gate tower, and has a two-story structure. The ground floor is built of granite and has three door openings. On the pillar walls of the door openings are embedded bluestone reliefs of the door gods "Qin Shubao" and "Yu Chigong" respectively. The second floor adopts imitation wood structure and is decorated with gold carvings. A plaque hangs in the middle and lower part of the eaves, engraved with five large gold-plated characters of "Five Thousand Years Cultural Expo Park" handwritten by Shen Peng, honorary chairman of the Chinese Calligraphers Association.
