The Temple of Deir el Bahari










We took a ferry to the west bank of the Nile River in Luxor to visit the Valley of the Kings, the Valley of the Queens and temples. However, the first two sites prohibit visitors' taking photos. After going to the two loyal tomb sites without any photo, we visited this mortuary temple of Pharaoh (Queen) Hatshepsut and saw this magnificent structure sitting overshadowed by the Peak of the Thebes. We couldn't stop clicking the cameras at every status, pillar, relief.....there.
