Di'anmen (traditional Chinese: 地安門; simplified Chinese: 地安门), previously Bei'anmen (and commonly known as the "back gate"), was an imperial gate in Beijing, China. The gate was first built in the Yongle period of the Ming dynasty, and served as the main northern gate to the Imperial City (the southern gate is the much more famed Tiananmen).
