Gods Abu Simbel

Abu Simbel is a historic site comprising two massive rock-cut temples in the village of Abu Simbel, Aswan Governorate, Upper Egypt, near the border with Sudan. It is situated on the western bank of Lake Nasser.

These temples marked the southern border of Egypt with Nubia.Due to the construction of the Aswan Dam, the two temples were dismantled and raised over 60 metres.They were reassembled and covered with an artificial mountain between 1964 until 1968. My husband donated £1 to the work which does not sound much but was a 10th of his salary at the time so we had to visit to see how well they had spent the money!

Image of the tourist site of Abu Simbel, Abu Simbel is an archaeological site of Lower Nubia on the left bank of the Nile in the world-famous aswan region. From the ancient city remain almost intact two temples that Ramses II (nineteenth dynasty) had dug in the sandstone of the western mountain, facing the Nile. The great temple, preceded by four seated colossi representing the pharaoh, was dedicated to Ra, Amun and Ramses. The first room of the temple is a hypostyle room, where there is a statue of Osiris, the next room is dedicated to the god Ptah. The small temple or temple of Hathor is preceded by six standing statues depicting the pharaoh and his wife Nefertari. Threatened with being submerged due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam, these temples were cut block by block (1,305 blocks, some of which reached thirty tons) and raised 64 m above their primitive location on an artificial escarpment (1963-1968) following a protection campaign launched by Unesco.

The Abu Simbel temples are cut into a rock in the village of Nubia not far from the Sudan border, during the reign of King Ramsses II as a monument to himself and Queen Nefertari. Both monuments were moved to a higher place because of the building of the Aswan Dam on the Nile river. On the Facade of this temple you see 4 tall statues of the pharaoh with the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt. An absolute majestic moment to be there.
