Highlights
  • Valley of the Kings - The Valley of the Kings is a burial site located on the west bank of the Nile River in Luxor, Egypt. It was used as a royal burial ground for nearly 500 years, from the 16th to the 11th century BC. The valley contains the tombs of many pharaohs and their wives, including that of Tutankhamun. The site was chosen for its relative secrecy and security, with the tombs often hidden in the mountainside and guarded by traps and mazes. The Valley of the Kings is considered one of the most important archaeological sites in Egypt and attracts visitors from around the world.
  • Hatshpsot - The Hatshepsut temple, also known as the Temple of Hatshepsut or the Djeser-Djeseru, is an ancient temple located in the city of Luxor in Egypt. It was built during the 18th dynasty of Ancient Egypt by Queen Hatshepsut, who reigned from approximately 1479 to 1458 BCE.

The temple is known for its spectacular architecture, which blends in seamlessly with the surrounding cliffs and mountains. Its design is a perfect example of the classical Egyptian style with large columns, deep courtyards, and terraces. The vast terraces that lead to the temple are considered one of the most striking features of the complex.

The temple was built to honor the goddess Hathor, who was the patron goddess of Thebes. Inside the temple, there are various chambers and rooms where different rituals and ceremonies were held. The most popular of these is the central sanctuary, which houses a shrine to the goddess Hathor .

  • Colossi of Memnon - The Colossi of Memnon are two giant stone statues of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III, situated west of the Nile River in Thebes, Egypt. They are approximately 3,400 years old and stand about 18 meters (60 feet) tall. The statues are made of quartzite sandstone and weigh around 720 tons each.

The Colossi of Memnon were built to guard the entrance to Amenhotep III’s mortuary temple, which was once one of the largest and most impressive temples in ancient Egypt. However, the temple has been largely destroyed over time and only a few remnants remain.

The statues are called the “Closes of Memnon” because they were believed to produce a musical sound at dawn, which the ancient Egyptians thought was the sound of Memnon, the son of Eos and Tithonus, greeting his mother
