the memory of a lifetime It is a monumental temple, engraved in the mountain,

 Ramsis II in 1250 BC

 Its façade consists of 4 giant statues of King Ramsis II
 on his throne, amidst them lies a door to the giant temple,
and the second temple has 6 statues, 4 of the king
 and two of his beautiful wife, Nefertiti


A Unesco World Heritage Site Abu Simbel 
is the best known for its two gorgeous temples that were originally carved out of solid rock on a mountainside way back in the 13th century BC
 The Temples were built to honor the great pharaoh Ramses II 
and his wife Nefertari 

We definitely suggest you to visit Abu Simbel along your trip
 as it’s a massive temple which is very well preserved


The Temples of Abu Simbel 
are amongst the most interesting Pharaonic Temples Located close to the southern border with the Sudan, it is 280 km south of Aswan and consists of two, 
rock-cut Temples,which both date back to the reign of King Ramses II 
(1290-1223 BC)

 Unfortunately these unique Temples suffered from the raising water of Lake Nasser 

while the High Dam was being built. Other countries, with the help of UNESCO,
 assisted Egypt to help save them



 The Temple of Queen Nefertari is  located 120m from the Temple of Ramses II
 and was also built by Ramses II, dedicated to the Goddess Hathor
 and to his wife Queen Nefertari. Queen Nefertari was the principal,
 and the most beloved, wife of King Ramses II
  

It is also a rock-cut Temple with a fa�ade of about 28m long and 12m high,
which contains 6 standing colossi,each one being about 11m in height


 Four of them represent Ramses II and the other two represent Queen Nefertari,
 each is accompanied by two smaller figures of their children
