It is a rambling enclosure built inside a Grecco Roman wall with gates to the East and the West. there are also hidden doors to the North and South known as the Porte de Cardea (Heart Gate), and the Porte de Mania (Gate of the Soul) There are rambling paths leading up to it, done in white and black cobblestones. Inside there are many entertainments.

The Cirque is open from 10 AM to Midnight, Tuesday through Sunday. Various acts perform at different times, and the Acteurs des avenues cam be found here at different times.

Entrances to the Cirque

As the Cirque is named after the Gate Keeper, these are truly special items. The artwork here is fine enough to entrance Toreador when they enter. The Gate is warded, and the keepers know when a supernatural enters the Cirque. Of course Management likes it that way...

Gate Attendents

This is no small job here, and attendants are well regarded within the Cirque. They can be found on main stage when they are not here. If one is lucky, they enter the Cirque when a popular main stage actor is on duty, getting to meet and get autographs from the highly talented performers. Performers are known to hand out free passes to those venues they inhabit.

Porte du Soleil Levant(The Gate of the Rising Sun)

This one of the main gates to the Cirque, done in beautiful varicolored marble. Various beautiful statues reside around it, and there are Cirque employees here most of the time giving out information. There are always lights on here, they are powered by back up generators should the main power go down.

Porte du Soleil Couchant(The Gate of the Setting Sun)

Here the walls have become a more gray marble, with barred copper colored wrought gates. There are always lights over the gates, those lights are also powered by backup generators should the main power go down.
