The Valley of the Kings served as the burial ground for pharaohs and nobles of the New Kingdom. Visitors enter elaborately decorated tombs, including those of Tutankhamun, Ramses VI, and Seti I.

This mortuary temple, dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut, is an architectural masterpiece carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. The temple’s terraces, colonnades, and reliefs depict the queen’s divine birth and trading expeditions to Punt.
