Abu Simbel Temples

UNESCO site! Definitely worth the 3 and half hours car ride to see the temples. And to think they moved them is just wow!

It's all 3500 years old, very spectacular and shocking. Depart at 4 in the morning, 8 hours drive to and from, it is worth visiting. World Heritage Sites, engineers from all countries are also very amazing.

Originally not in this location, this is because of the construction of the Aswan Dam, so the original relics are moved here as a whole. The statue is lifelike and the interior is very mysterious, but you can't take pictures. Someone checks the camera.

Abu Simbel Temple, located in the southwest of Aswan, was built by the great Ramses II for his beloved concubine Nefertali. It is a very fascinating and romantic place. Starting at 4 a.m., escorted by the desert guard, although it was very hard, it was worth all the hard work to see the huge stone statue. There was also a magic phenomenon. Every year at a fixed time, the sun's rays would shine on the king's face in the three-storey hall, which could not be said to be a miracle. So here we hold the Sun Festival every year, and people all over the world would wait here. Here, watch the crystallization and wonder of human wisdom.

Abu Simbel Temple, also known as Abu Simbel Temple, is situated on the West Bank of Lake Nasser. It consists of an archway gate built on a cliff, a giant statue of Ramses II on a cliff, a front and rear pillar hall and a shrine. There are two giant temples carved from rocks, which are dedicated to the goddess of Putah, Amundra, La Halahertia and the deified Ramses II and the nearby temples dedicated to the goddesses of Hartol and La. The little temple of Queen Nefertari, the beloved wife of Messis II. Two days a year, the sun shines directly into the temple. The four holy statues in the temple can be illuminated except Anubis, the God of death, in the darkness.

Aswan was still asleep at 4 a.m. and we said goodbye to the cruise ship and went to the temple of Abu Simbel. But it wasn't sleepy at all. It was estimated that the jet lag had little effect on me, so I went to sleep. After crossing the desert in three and a half hours, we arrived at the temple. We had arrived at the border between Sudan and Egypt and drove about 280 kilometers. Along the way, guard cars escorted a lot of two cars and drove in together. So the importance of the temple is obvious. The ticket should be 100 A. P., but each of us spent 115 U. S. dollars on this self-funded project. The exquisite sculpture is all done on stone, but there seems to be a gap compared with Chinese murals. It may be a different feeling.

After lunch, he and his son went to visit Abu Simbel Temple 100 kilometers from the border between southern Egypt and Sudan. The temple is 280 kilometers away from Aswan. It takes eight hours to cross the Sahara desert, but the dogs are always interested and have no complaints. I am very gratified. Abu Simbel Temple is the two cave temples built by the famous Pharaoh Ramses II for himself and his wife Nafiltari in parallel size. It differs greatly from other Egyptian temples in construction methods. Located on the West Bank of Lake Nasser, the temple consists of an archway gate built on a cliff, a giant Ramses II cliff statue, a front and rear pillar hall and a shrine. Abu Simbel, along with many of its downstream sites to Philadelphia, is designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Since the Aswan Dam was built in 1966, the temple was moved to the back hill, which is more than 60 meters above the river bed level. It is a successful attempt to protect the world's cultural relics. (This section of knowledge is widely copied from Baidu Encyclopedia.) "Egyptian gods, please hear my prayer - Osiris God, please bless me, let me have the next life again. God Heras, please grant me courage and fighting power to fight again for the protection of my territory. God Amon, please protect my soul and fly to the distant afterlife. Goddess Habi, please take care of me again. Let me take her to you. " This is Ramses II's prayer carved in the temple, full of affection for his wife, Nafirtari.
