Message from Nicole Carter

The Temples of Wadi es-Sebua, located in Lower Nubia, consist of two ancient Egyptian temples, one built by Amenhotep III and later restored by Ramesses II, and the other constructed by Ramesses II himself. The site got its name from the sphinx-lined approach to the temple forecourts, giving it a cool "Valley of the Lions" vibe. These temples were relocated in the 1960s to avoid flooding from the Aswan Dam project and are now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Plus, fun fact - the temple was even converted into a Christian church in the 6th century AD!
