The West Bank and the Valley of the Kings
| Valley of the Queens -- A fairly disappointing visit unless you see the recently restored tomb of Nefertari. |
 |
Tomb of Amenhotep II -- One of the most rewarding tombs in the Valley of the Kings. |  |
|
| Tomb of Rameses III-- A tomb with unusual architecture and some vivid paintings remaining. |
 |
Tomb
of Rameses VI -- Perhaps the best tomb of the Ramessides,
its vaulted ceiling is famous for its paintings of the Book of
Day and the Book of Night. |
 |
|
| Queen Hatshepsut's Mortuary Temple --The woman who would be pharaoh and her massive temple carved into the rock face. |
 |
Colossi
of Memnon -- The guardians of Amenhotep III's mortuary temple.
See their shattered remains. |
