An astonishing sight is the mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut. The temple is dramatically situated in a valley overshadowed by the peak of the mountains of Thebes.
The massive quartzite statues that once guarded the mortuary temple is awe inspiring as they stand virtually alone in a field on the road to the valley of the kings.
What makes a trip to Egypt truly memorable is that it has a lot of truly awesome ancient temples and ruins which are similar, and yet each temple manages to be impressive in its own way at the same time.
