| * The Gates of Hera are actually twin peaks just north of [[Wikipedia:Vancouver|Vancouver]], where the [[Re-imagined Series]] is filmed. They rise prominently over downtown Vancouver and are known locally as [[w:The Lions (Peaks)|The Lions.]] The scene where they appear was shot facing south, with nearby downtown Vancouver hidden from view by the mountains.

| * Compare these peaks with the legends surrounding the [[w:Pillars of Hercules|Pillars of Hercules]].
