Abu Simbel Temples Egypt | Ramses II & Queen Nefertari

Abu Simbel Temples are the most famous and phenomenal monuments of Egypt. These two temples are found in southern Egypt close to the Sudanese border and they are constructed under the rule of Pharaoh Ramses II, in the 13 th century BC. The greater temple is celebrating Ramesses II and the smaller temple is celebrating his favorite wife Nefertari the queen. The huge figures that stand at the doorway, each of above 20 meters high, act as a strong reminder of ancient Egyptian art and strength.

Relocation Projects in the 1960s is one of the most outstanding features of Abu Simbel Temples. The site was in danger of being submerged with the establishment of the Aswan High Dam, so the UNESCO took a large initiative to relocate the temples. This amazing work managed to save not only buildings, but also the special alignment of the sun that flares up the interior shrine two times in a year: on February, 22 and October, 22.
