The Temple of Abu Simbel
Ramses the Great built magnificent temples at Abu Simbel (1279-1213 BCE).

It was known as the “Temple of Ramesses, Beloved by Amun” and had that name because it was built for two important reasons.
It has developed into one of Egypt’s most magnificent tourist destinations that visitors must see, especially during the Abu Simbel Sun Festival, which celebrates the two occasions each year when the sun fills the interior temple room with four sculptures. Ramesses’ birthday is observed in October, and every year in February, the anniversary of his accession to the kingdom is celebrated. Make sure to list it on your visit during the Aswan day tours.
