Its name "Sam Yot", which translates to "three peaks", refers to the three peaks of the city gate. It was one of the outer city gates of the Grand Palace built since the reign of King Phutthayotfa Chulalok (Rama I) during early Rattanakosin period. This gate has three summits and one of them was the passageway of Charoen Krung Road, therefore being called "Sam Yot" in Thai.
