ABU SIMBEL Temple complex | EGYPT [4K]

The Amazing Abu Simbel Temple Complex in 4K. Arguably the most impressive temple in Egypt

Abu Simbel is a historic Unesco Heritage site comprising two massive rock-cut temples in the village of Abu Simbel, south of Aswan and near the border with Sudan.

The twin temples were originally carved out of the mountainside in the 13th century BC, during the 19th Dynasty reign of the Pharaoh Ramesses II.
Their huge external rock relief figures of Ramesses II have become iconic. His wife, Nefertari, and children can be seen in smaller figures by his feet.

The complex was relocated in its entirety in 1968 to higher ground to avoid it being submerged by Lake Nasser, the Aswan Dam reservoir.
