2. The Colossi of Memnon are two colossal stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, who ruled the Eighteenth Dynasty (1550-1292 BC). Located in the Theban necropolis, the statues are about 20 meters high and represent a seated Amenhotep III. It is believed that the statue was built to commemorate the achievements of the pharaoh during his long reign. The statues are made of quartzite sandstone and have an inscription on their bases. The inscriptions clearly provide clues to the identity of the pharaoh and the purpose of the statues, but the inscriptions have been damaged over the centuries by weather, erosion, and vandalism. The Colossus of Memnon has been the subject of much speculation, with some claiming that they had supernatural powers. However, despite its enigmatic nature, it remains a testament to the greatness and accomplishments of Amenhotep III, who was one of the most powerful pharaohs in the history of Egypt.

3. Located near the city of Luxor in Egypt, the Valley of the Kings is a historical site of immense archaeological importance. Once a tomb for the kings and nobles of ancient Egypt, this site is among the most visited archaeological sites in the world. The Tombs of the Valley of the Kings are known for their intricate artwork and hieroglyphs, and the site is now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Tombs of the Valley of the Kings cover a period of 500 years, from about the 16th century to the 11th century BC. During this time, the valley was home to the tombs of 62 Egyptian rulers, including King Tutankhamun and Ramesses II. Designed to protect mummies and other treasures, these tombs feature elaborate decorations and designs. Many of these tombs were decorated with scenes from the afterlife, such as gods and goddesses and their symbols. Today, the tombs and other archaeological finds can be seen in a museum in Luxor.

Located in the barren Theban hills near Luxor, the temple was constructed by Hatshepsut, the fifth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty, to commemorate her reign and commemorate her ancestor, the god Amun-Re. On the east side of the temple is a rock-cut portico with a double staircase leading up to the sanctuary. The walls are adorned with paintings and inscriptions describing Hatshepsut's accomplishments. In the central court, two obelisks stand as symbols of royal power. Behind the court, a series of chambers and pillared halls lead to the sanctuary, which was dedicated to the gods Amun-Re and Hathor.

東岸では、カルナック神殿が何ヘクタールにもわたってパイロン、オベリスク、大列柱室の円柱の森を広げています。スフィンクスの参道が、市街中心のルクソール神殿とそれをつなぎ、夕方にライトアップされるととりわけ幻想的です。ルクソール博物館とミイラ博物館は、川沿いのコルニーシュに面しています。
