Colossi of Memnon

The Colossi of Memnon, also known as the statues of Memnon, are two enormous stone statues located in the Theban Necropolis on the west bank of the Nile in Luxor, Egypt. The statues, which are approximately 18 meters tall and weigh around 720 tons each, were built during the 14th century BC by Pharaoh Amenhotep III to guard the entrance of his mortuary temple. The statues were named after Memnon, a hero of the Trojan War in Greek mythology, due to the sound they produced when the sun's rays hit them at dawn, which the Greeks believed to be the sound of Memnon greeting his mother Eos, the goddess of dawn. This phenomenon is caused by the expansion of the stone as it heats up from the sun's rays, creating a series of vibrations that produce the sound. The Greeks believed that the sound was a sign that the statues were alive and began to visit them as a tourist attraction. Over time, the Colossi of Memnon became a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from all over the world.

Valley of the Kings

The Valley of the Kings is a renowned archaeological site located on the west bank of the Nile River in Luxor, Egypt. It is one of the most significant and well-known historical monuments of the ancient Egyptian civilization, attracting thousands of tourists each year. The valley is a complex of narrow corridors and passageways leading to rooms carved into the rock, each of which served as the final resting place of a pharaoh from the New Kingdom period of ancient Egypt. The tombs in the Valley of the Kings were designed to be difficult to access and to prevent grave robbers from stealing the precious treasures and artifacts within. Some of the most famous tombs in the Valley of the Kings include the tomb of Tutankhamun, which was discovered in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter and contained an incredible array of treasures, including the famous gold mask of Tutankhamun.

Temple of Hatshepsut

The Temple of Hatshepsut, built by the Egyptian Eighteenth Dynasty, is an impressive architectural marvel located on the west bank of the Nile. This magnificent temple features a unique design of 3 floors, adorned with colorful stone statues that exhibit its beauty and elegance. Apart from its exceptional design, the Temple of Hatshepsut is also renowned for its inscriptions, which depict the naval missions sent by Queen Hatshepsut to the country of Punt for trade and to bring back incense and myrrh. Incense was considered an essential offering to the gods by the Pharaohs of Egypt, and this is evident in the paintings on their temples, depicting the Pharaohs offering incense to various gods.
