Sightseeing Abu Simbel

This great temple was built as a dedication to Amon Ra, Ptah and Harmakes. It was also celebratory of the Great Pharaoh Ramasses II. The temple was hidden in the sand and on the verge of going under the waters of Lake Nasser. In 1813, a massive rescue mission revealed this gloriously magnificent historical monument.

The twin temples are breathtaking sites. The monuments were carved out of the mountainside, in the 13th Century BCE. They were sculpted during the reign of Ramesses II, in salute of the Battle of Kadesh and in memory of the Pharaoh and Queen Nefertari.

Nefertari's Temple of Hathor was built in honour of Queen Nefertari, Ramesses II wife and Egypt's longest serving Pharaoh. The inside of the temple is striking, with extraordinary hieroglyphs and wall paintings.

The Sound and Light Show of Abu-Simbel is a fascinating presentation of the temples. This display makes use of ancient music, with wall projections, to give you a feel of how life was in ancient Egypt.
