[Egypt] The grandeur that became the origin of the World Heritage Site "Abu Simbel Temple"

A place I really wanted to visit outside of Cairo: Abu Simbel Temple🏛️ It is the largest World Heritage temple left by Ramses II, and was built about 3,300 years ago😳 The Great Temple is 20m high! Next to it was a slightly smaller temple built for Queen Nefertari👀 Its grandeur was breathtaking...🥹✨ The great Abu Simbel Temple was in danger of being submerged during the construction of the nearby Aswan High Dam in the 1960s😨 But I was surprised to learn that UNESCO protected the temple by cutting the ruins and moving them 60m above their original position🫢!! ! ! . 📍Abu Simbel temple 💸Entrance fee: 615 EGP (about 2000 yen) per adult 🚗Access: About 3 hours by car from Aswan Airport #Travel with me #I started Moments #Egypt #Overseas travel #Amazing view #Girls trip
