Abu-Simbel temple in Egypt

In spite of its remoteness from all tourist centers Abu Simbel is daily visited by hundreds of tourists. They want to see two most magnificent temples of ancient Egyptian civilization, which importance can be equal only to that of the Great Pyramids of Giza. The temple complex of Abu Simbel was constructed by Ramses II approximately in 1250 B. C., so they are over three thousand years old.
