Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari
Hatshepsut temple is located at the bottom of a high rocky slope near the western bank of the Nile. The temple is also known as Deir el-Bahari. It is dedicated to the worship of Amun-Ra, the sun god. This temple was designed by an engineer named Senimot. The temple is unique in its design as it is similar to the classical building designs. The Temple of Hatshepsut consists of three floors, as well as a large number of statues made entirely of limestone for a number of deities, such as statues of the god Osiris and Queen Hatshepsut. You can notice the temple's long terrace filled with rows of columns, some 97 feet high, the turrets, courtyards, and the hall with a colonnaded ceiling. Inside the temple, you can see the Hall of the Sun, the small temple and the altar. The inscriptions on the walls of the temple express the story of Queen Hatshepsut birth story and her trade trips to Punt, now known as the modern state of Somalia or the Arabian Peninsula.
Colossi of Memnon
One of the biggest tourist attractions in Luxor, the Colossi of Memnon gained its popularity due to its majestic appearance and for the mysterious sounds emitted by the northern colossus statue at every sunrise. Two magnificent twin statues image of pharaoh Amenhotep III and two smaller statues carved by his feet (one being his wife and the other his mother), stands graciously in the horizon of the magnificent Luxor horizons. The Colossi of Memnon is located in the West Bank of Luxor, Egypt. The two statues, each measuring 60 feet tall, stands in the entrance of Amenhotep III’s mortuary temple. They are famously named by the name of Colossi of Memnon due to a phenomenon produced by one of the statues after an earthquake. Originally built in the Theban Necropolis in the west of the Nile River in the modern city of Luxor, the Colossi of Memnon, two colossal statues made of quartzite sandstone, which archaeologists believe was quarried at El-Gabal el-Ahmar.
