ABU SIMPEL
Abu Simbel is situated 280 km south of Aswan and includes the Temple of Ramses II and the Temple of Nefertari. Both temples are cut out of the rocks during the period of 1274-1244 BC, but was moved in 1960, when the water in Lake Nasser could destroy them.

The Temple of Ramses II is the largest and the most splendid in Nubia. The facade, 30 m high and 35 m wide, is chiseled into the rock with the 20 m high colossal statues of Ramses II. 55 meters inside the mountain are 4 seated statues of Ptah, Amon-Re, the godly Ramsey and Ra-Harakte. Every year on the 22nd of October and the 22nd of February the rising sun illuminates the 3 statues.

The Nefertari Temple is situated north of the big temple and is dedicated to Hator and the favorite wife of Ramses, Nefertari. The facade is decorated with statues of Ramses and Nefertari, all of the same size, which was exceptional at the time.
