This was virtually the first place I spent some time at in Old Riga, forming effectively a notable entrance at one spot to the Old Town.
火药塔原是里加城防系统的一部分，现为拉脱维亚战争博物馆的所在地。塔壁上生长着的爬山虎会随着季节的变化而变化，露出的炮孔使得走近它的人无不感受到历史的沧桑。
火药塔(Mihulka Powder Tower)是布拉格老城的一座哥特式城门，该市的地标性建筑物之一，修建于1475年，是依照查理大桥旧城桥塔为模型而设计建造的，布拉格的13座城门中唯一保存下来的一座。
