Must-See Places During Your Egyptian Vacation
With thousands of years of history and temples, palaces, and statues still standing tall, Egypt is perhaps one of the most visited countries in the world. Due to its historical and cultural richness, it has many places to visit. Here are some of them.
The Temple of Karnak, built for Amun, the chief god of the city of Thebes, is one of the most important sites. You can see a version of the Treaty of Kadesh on the temple walls.
The Luxor Temple, a famous temple built in honor of the Theban triad and listed among the 50 places to see before you die, is magnificent with its hieroglyphs and 25-meter granite obelisk.
The Temple of Abydos and the Ramesseum Temple on the Nile River are other historical temples that should be visited.
You shouldn't consider your trip to Egypt complete if you haven't seen the Abu Simbel temples, built by Ramesses II for himself and his wife Nefertari.
The Valley of the Kings, which includes the tomb of Tutankhamun, the Temple of Hatshepsut built by the famous female pharaoh Hatshepsut for herself, and of course, the famous Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx are indispensable parts of an Egyptian vacation.
The Cairo Museum, considered one of the most important museums in the world, is another very significant structure to see. The Temples of Kom Ombo, Philae, and Edfu are other temples you should visit.
