The Great Sphinx stands watch over the Giza Pyramids,
particularly the Pyramid of Khafra. The Sphinx depicts a lion-human hybrid
face.
The oldest and largest monolithic sculpture is this one. In BC
2550, it was erected. On the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile sits a
limestone statue known as the Sphinx. It is a representation of a mythical
monster with a lion's body and a human head of a god.
The Old Kingdom Ancient Egyptians claimed that this divinity was
responsible for the entire cycle of the Nile, and the statue is the most
fearsome of all.
The building of the Sphinx of Giza, which was the largest
complex on the world up until the 20th century, is a tribute to the engineering
for the world. The Sphinx symbolize strength and wisdom.

Memphis is a city on the western bank of the Nile, south of
Cairo. Memphis served as the seat of government for eight successive dynasties
in ancient Egypt. Menes was the first King of a united Egypt, and Ptah was the
god.
The two enormous statues of Rameses II, among others, can be
found at the Memphis site. Saqqara is one of Egypt's most densely populated
archaeological sites. It served as Memphis's cemetery and was a less developed
area.
The King Zoser Step Pyramid is the main structure on the site.

Kagimni, the Mastaba Tomb of Ti, and the Tomb of PtahHotep are other sites.

perfect vacation full of enjoyment and fun.
One of the biggest temple complexes in the world is the Karnak
Temple. This magnificent Temple, which is 200 acres (1.5 km by 0.8 km) in size
and has an incredibly rich architectural history, was built to honour the
Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu and served as a place of pilgrimage for
almost 2,000 years.
This great Temple of Amon Ra was known during the Middle Kingdom
period as Ipt-Swt, which means the Selected Spot. It was also called Pr-Imn, or
the House of Amon. From the Arabic word Karnak, which means fortified village,
came the name Al-Karnak.
This superb complex hosting a group of temples and it has been
enlarged over a thirteen hundred years period. Enclosed are the three primary
temples of Montu, Amun, and Mut.The three main temples of Mut, Montu and Amun
are enclosed by enormous brick walls. The Open Air Museum is located to the
north of the first courtyard, across from the Sacred Lake.
The Valley of the Kings is separated into two valleys: the East
Valley, which contains the majority of the royal tombs, and the West Valley,
which is known in Arabic as the Valley of the Gates or wadi El Pipan. The
valley served as a royal burial site for pharaohs such Tutankhamun, Seti I, and
Ramses II as well as queens, high priests, and other eminent members of the
18th, 19th, and 20th dynasties during Egypt's New Kingdom (1539-1075 B.C.).
The number has recently increased due to the discovery of the
burial chamber in 2006 (often referred to as the "tomb of 63") and
the discovery of additional entrances to the same room in 2008.
Memnon's Colossi The Colossi of Memnon are two enormous seated
stone sculptures that portray King Amenhotep III. They are often referred to as
the singing statues or "The Vocal Memnon," and it is thought that
this is why they were so well-liked throughout the Roman era. This was most
likely brought on by the stone's expansion as it warmed up throughout the day
and cooled off at night.
The Luxor Museum is house to a collection of 26 exceptionally
well preserved statues that were discovered buried close to the famed Luxor
Temple. It is situated in the heart of Luxor and has a view of the west bank of
the Nile River.
The museum's grounds are 55 metres long and 29 metres wide, and
its facade was built to face the Nile. Additionally, this temple has two
obelisks at the entrance, one of which is in Paris and the other is still in
Luxor, both of which bear inscriptions listing King Ramses II's victories. The
museum first opened to the public in 1975.
Was devoted to Ptah, Harmakis, and Amon Ra, the gods of ancient
Egypt. Four statues that belonged to the Pharaoh make up the façade. Four
enormous seated statues of Ramses are depicted on the massive facade of the
Ramses II temple. The statues are each 67 feet high, and the facade is 119 feet
broad and 100 feet high. The region was once on the southern edge of pharaonic
Egypt, facing Nubia. Beautiful specimens of ancient Egyptian art can be found
in the four enormous statues of Ramses that stand in front of the main temple.
The largest surviving sculptures from the pharaonic era are the four figures
that stand watch at the entrance of the greater of these temples. then set sail
in the direction of Kasr Ibrim, Amada, and Bennut Tomb.
When it was constructed in the 1960s, the Aswan Dam—a famous
high dam nearby Aswan—was a feat of engineering. Its material content is 18
times more than that of the Great Pyramid of Cheops. As of today, the dam,
which is 11,811 feet long, 3215 feet thick at its base, and 364 feet tall,
coupled with the older Aswan Dam, constructed by the British between 1898 and
1902, and located 6 kilometres downstream, supplies irrigation and energy for
all of Egypt. From the top of the two-mile-long High Dam, you can see the
enormous power plant to the north, the Kalabsha Temple in the south, and Lake
Nassar, the enormous reservoir that was created when it was built.
