Your adventure begins with a visit to the magnificent Abu Simbel Temple complex, one of Egypt's most iconic and historically significant sites. These temples were constructed by the great pharaoh Ramses II to commemorate his victory at the Battle of Kadesh and to honor the gods Amun, Ra-Horakhty, and Ptah. The main temple is known for its colossal statues of Ramses II, which stand guard at the entrance. Inside, you'll discover a series of stunning chambers adorned with intricate reliefs and hieroglyphics that tell the story of Ramses II's reign and his divine connections.
