Descend into the depths of the earth and explore the magnificent burial chambers of Egypt's most powerful pharaohs, including Tutankhamun and Ramses VI.

There were many pharaohs involved in the building of the Temple of Karnak. The building took place over thousands of years. The pharaohs Sensusret, Wahankh Intef II, and Ptolemy IV are just a few of the pharaohs that added to the Temple of Karnak. The Temple of Karnak was believed to be the spot where creation began. They also believed it was a point of interaction between the god Amun-Ra and Egyptians. It is important to Egypt's cultural history because it was a place of worship and provides clues about the ancient Egyptian religion.

It was built by one of the most powerful female rulers in ancient Egypt, making it a symbol of female power during a time when women were not often seen in positions of authority. The temple also served as a way for Queen Hatshepsut to honor her father, Thutmose I, who had died before she became queen

Die Memnonkolosse (arabisch: el-Colossat oder es-Salamat) sind zwei massive Steinstatuen des Pharaos Amenophis III., die vor dem zerstörten Totentempel von Amenophis III. stehen, dem größten Tempel der thebanischen Nekropole. Sie stehen seit 1350 v. Chr. und waren den alten Griechen und Römern sowie Reisenden und Ägyptologen der frühen Neuzeit wohlbekannt. Die Statuen enthalten 107 Inschriften aus der Römerzeit in Griechisch und Latein, die auf die Zeit zwischen 20 und 250 n. Chr. datiert werden. Viele dieser Inschriften auf der nördlichsten Statue beziehen sich auf den griechischen mythologischen König Memnon, den die Statue damals – fälschlicherweise – darstellte.
