Queen Hapshetsut

Day 8. The Queen's Funerary temple.

The steps to the Temple.

A side entrance.

The view back the other way.

Cut into the mountain.

It was a long walk. But worth it.

Closed for refurbishment.

And yes, it was hot.

Recreating the colours.

Valley of the Nobles.

More tombs.

Day 7. The temple of Horus at Edfu.

You missed a bit!

There were tombs everywhere.

And I mean, everywhere!

Only found recently.

 

Another view.

Temple of Horus.

Queen Hatshepsut's temple from afar.

Got caught in a sandstorm here.

This was on the way to Luxor.

Contained 2 tombs - 1 was superb.

I need a better zoom.

Couldn't see a blasted thing.
