Beijing winter skies are often quite blue. Deshengmen gate.

Deshengmen (simplified Chinese: 德胜门; traditional Chinese: 德勝門; pinyin: Déshèngmén; Manchu: Erdemu i etehe duka; lit. "Gate of Virtuous Triumph") is the name of a city gate that was once part of Beijing's northern city wall. It is one of Beijing's few preserved city gates and now stands as a landmark on the northern 2nd Ring Road.

The original gate complex, built in 1437, was composed of three structures—the gatehouse, archery tower, and barbican. The gatehouse proper was demolished in 1921, and the city wall was torn down in 1969. Today only the archery tower and the barbican survives. They overlook the northern city moat, and house an ancient coin exhibition inside.

Deshengmen is now a major transportation node in northern Beijing. The gate complex is surrounded by the Deshengmen bridge, a rotary overpass that channels traffic from the 2nd Ring Road to the Badaling Expressway. The street that once passed through the gate is still named in relation to it. South of Deshengmen and inside the old city wall is Deshengmen Inner Street. To the north, it is called Deshengmen Outer Street.

Deshengmen means "Gate of Virtuous Triumph." In traditional times, the imperial military would march out of Beijing through Deshengmen, and return through Andingmen, the Gate of Peace and Stability. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deshengm…

德胜门（满语：Erdemu i etehe duka）是一座古老的城门，位于北京的北侧，现仅剩箭楼。原城楼宽31.5米，深16.8米，城楼连同城台通高36米。瓮城宽70米，深118米，在内城各城门中仅次于正阳门。瓮城西侧辟闸楼、券门。德胜门真武庙位于瓮城北边正中，南向。
历史

明朝初年将元大都健德门改称德胜门，寓意明军以德取胜。洪武四年改筑北京城垣时向南移建动五里，当时建有箭楼、门楼、瓮楼等建筑。1915年拆除瓮城。1921年拆除城楼。1955年拆除城台。因该门瓮城南北进深很长，箭楼位置比安定门箭楼偏北50余米，未阻挡地铁施工，因此未被拆除。1979年拟拆除箭楼，后得以保留。

德胜意为以德取胜，故在明清两代，军队从德胜门出兵，意味此行必然可以得胜，战争结束后，由安定门班师。清军平定葛尔丹叛乱和大小和卓之乱均从此门出兵。

1979年，德胜门箭楼被列为北京市重点文物保护单位。1993年，在箭楼设立了北京市古代钱币展览馆。 zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%BE%B…
