The Double Gate, also known as the Prophet's Gate, is a pair of adjacent gates, located on the southern side of the wall of the Al-Aqsa Mosque just under the pulpit of the Imam. The gates lead to the courtyards of the mosque through a double door, a corridor 82 m long and about 13 m wide, called the "Old Al-Aqsa". It ends with the staircase of its exit in front of the tribal chapel, 80 meters from the triple door. The door may trace to the Byzantines. The Double Gate and the Triple Gate are both part of the Huldah Gate in the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount.
