#mytraveldiary #valleyoftheking #luxor #egypt #thingstodo 📍 Overview The Valley of the Kings in Luxor is one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world, home to more than 60 royal tombs of pharaohs from the New Kingdom era. Among them, the Tomb of Ramses III (KV11) stands out for its scale, detailed hieroglyphics, and fascinating journey into the depths of ancient Egyptian burial practices. ⸻ 🌟 My Experience • From the aerial view of the valley (from Hot Air Balloon), the rocky cliffs look barren, yet they hide the most remarkable treasures of ancient Egypt 🏜️. • The entrance to Ramses III’s tomb begins with a wide corridor, and step by step, you descend deeper into the tomb—each wall covered with vivid reliefs and inscriptions telling stories of gods, battles, and the afterlife ✨. • Walking down into the chambers feels like traveling back more than 3,000 years, uncovering secrets of a once-mighty pharaoh. • The tomb is one of the more complex and longer tombs, and yet it’s accessible for most visitors with well-maintained pathways. • The colors remain astonishingly bright, showing just how well preserved these sacred walls are. ⸻ 💰 Ticket & Value • Valley of the Kings General Entry: 600 EGP (≈ USD 12) – includes access to 3 tombs of your choice. • Tomb of Ramses III: Included in the general ticket 🎟️. • Optional Extra Tombs (like Seti I or Tutankhamun) require an additional ticket. ⸻ 📝 Traveler Tips ✔️ Arrive early to avoid the afternoon heat and tour bus crowds 🌄 ✔️ Wear comfortable shoes—the walk into the tombs can be long 👟 ✔️ No photography allowed inside unless you buy a photo permit 🎫📸 ✔️ Carry water—shade is limited in the valley. ⸻ Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) The Tomb of Ramses III is a must-see highlight of the Valley of the Kings.
