Gapura Wringin is one of the historical remains from the Majapahit era, built with the iconic red bricks. The gate still stands strong and offers a glimpse into the past of the great kingdom. The area is clean, easy to access, and there’s an information board that explains its history. A nice stop if you’re exploring other Majapahit sites around Trowulan.

Trowulan is today a rice farming village in Mojokerto regency of East Java. It was once the site of Majapahit, the most powerful kingdom in precolonial Indonesia. Little remains today except a baths and a few monumental gateways. This is one of the largest examples, hinting at the former grandeur of the city.

The Gate of Wringin Lawang of the Great Majapahit Empire. It is located at the center of Trowulan District as it was the capital city of Majapahit. The name of Wringin Lawang in ancient-Javanese has meaning of Wringin (Banyan) and Lawang (Gate) regarding there were many banyan trees on both sides of this gate. This gate is believed to be once the main entrance/exit gate of the empire (but probably it was just a icon of the empire's passage since a gate in ancient-Javanese philosophically should be facing the north & south-side and not facing east & west-side) Whether it was a gate or a passage, it is considered as sacred that this site is commonly used to be worshipping place for a few of the Hindu-Buddha Javanese that remains as the descendants of the Great Majapahit Empire.

According to the tourism information, this ancient buding is a gate, not a tample nor "candi" actually. Surrounding known this place as Gapura Wringin Lawang. It is a clean and neat envirenment.

Beautiful Gate monument to physically have a tremendous appeal, remains sturdy despite already hundreds of years old, but there is no local guide as well as clear information center while visiting this location.

This is normally off the tourist track, but it is well worth a visit for history of the Hindu Kingdom. And just up the road is the main site and there is a very good museum associated with the history & the area.

Great historical landmark from Majapahit ancient kingdom. It was a very important heritage and was the mark of the famous ancient Majapahit gate, as mentioned too in the old manuscript Nagarakretagama. This place now though situated near by an important access to the national street, but still has its great ambience and quite atmosphere. Perfect place for finding a peacefull moment. Very recommended.
