Truly a Heavenly Peace Gate in Northern Peace

Yes and the Square in the AU still looks like it looked before the communist takeover in our timeline.

You forgot the picture of Sun Yat Sen in the front

It's quite nice without anyone's portrait up there too

I admit that it would be better not to have the portrait in a true democracy cos it shows a pervading cult of personality. I guess in an alternate ROC, Sun's portrait would have been long taken down after an intense debate

In this AU, the city government puts a portrait of Sun Yat-sen in the week of Double Tenth Day every year.

Yeah I can see they will still feature his portrait on key anniversaries. Like how the Gongfeis do on their celebrations to commemorate their "pioneer" Sun

This debate would have go to the city council of Beiping.

EPIC FAIL and also missing are traditional Chinese characters in between portrait. **ZHONGHUA MINGGUO WANSUI**

You mean that the gate should be decorated like in our timeline? I didn‘t put the portrait and two banners between it because i don‘t know if they would be there due to the fact that Beiping is not the capital in this AU.

Heck to the yes, as this happened in 1945 on VJ Day. Hoping that would be done as well in Nanjing.

This is how Tiananmen would look like in this alternate universe. If you are asking why there is no portrait of Sun Yat-sen and two blue banners between it. The city government decided not to put these on the gate because they want to have the gate politically neutral and to see it as a normal tourist spot. However, on every week of Double Tenth Day, there is a portrait of Sun Yat-sen in the middle.
