Valley of the Kings (Entrance to Tutankhamun's Tomb)
The Valley of the Kings was used for royal tombs over approximately 500 years from the 16th to the 11th centuries BCE. Famous pharaohs such as Ramses II and Tutankhamun have tombs here. To prevent tomb robbery, the locations of royal tombs were carefully concealed, and their existence was forgotten for a long time.
Since the early 19th century when Italian explorer Belzoni made the first discoveries, many explorers and archaeologists have excavated the site, bringing numerous precious artifacts to light. Among them, the 1922 discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb by British archaeologist Howard Carter, along with its lavish treasures, shocked the world and ushered in a golden age of Egyptian archaeology.

Colossi of Memnon
The Colossi of Memnon, towering on the west bank of the Nile in Luxor, Egypt, are magnificent remnants of ancient Egyptian civilization filled with mystery and romance.

The name derives from Memnon, a king of Ethiopia in Greek mythology. In Roman times, an earthquake damaged one of the statues, and people said a strange sound could be heard at dawn. People believed this sound was Memnon mourning his mother and began visiting the statues.
