This site south of Aswan along Lake Nasser's shore is the most well known in all of Egypt after the Giza Pyramids. Worked by the best of the pharaohs, Ramesses II, these colossal stone cut sanctuaries denoted the southern limit of the Egyptian Empire with Nubia at the pinnacle of its capacity during the New Kingdom. They were intended to pass on the intensity of Egypt's rulers to any individual who laid eyes upon them. They more likely than not been compelling in this limit on the grounds that the incredible sculptures of Ramesses and his significant other Nefertari that decorate their exteriors are still amazing today. The four sculptures guarding the entryway to the bigger of these sanctuaries are the biggest models that get by from the pharaonic period.
