Zampa Gateway
Porta de Zampa
The most ornate gate on the western side of the old city walls, decorated with lion, angel, and priest reliefs, with a small chapel inside.
Zampa Gateway, built in 1702, is the best-preserved gate on Diu's old city walls. Lions and angels are carved on either side of its red archway. Inside the gate is a small chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary, decorated with murals. Passing through the gate brings you into the winding lanes of the old town, lined with colorful Portuguese and Gujarati-style houses. Admission is free, and it pairs well with a visit to the Naida Caves.
