Located at The west bank of Luxor, it is the site of royal burials since around 2100 BC. It was once called the Great Necropolis of Millions of Years of Pharaoh, or the Place of Truth the Valley of the Kings has 63 magnificent royal tombs.
Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, the only woman ever to reign over Egypt as pharaoh, is a mortuary temple built. It is considered to be a masterpiece of ancient architecture. Its three massive terraces rise above the desert floor and into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. The temple's twin functions are identified by its axes: on its main east-west axis, the temple served to receive the barque of Amun-Re at the climax of the Beautiful Festival of the Valley, while on its north-south axis it represented the life cycle of the pharaoh from coronation to rebirth.

The temple of Luxor is situated on the east bank of the River Nile in the town of Luxor (Thebes). It was founded during the New Kingdom, around 1400 BC. The temple is dedicated to Amun, Mut, and Khonsu and was the focus of one of the most important religious festivals in ancient Egypt – the annual Opet Festival. During this festival the cult statues of Amun, Mut and Khonsu would travel from Karnak to Luxor. As a result, the temple is not aligned to the river (as is more usual) but to the temple complex at Karnak.
The temple of Karnak was known as Ipet-isu—or “most select of places”—by the ancient Egyptians. It is a city of temples built over 2,000 years and dedicated to the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. This derelict place is still capable of overshadowing many wonders of the modern world.
