The great Pharaohs of the Golden age (New Kingdom) gave up the pyramid cult and stopped building the pyramids, and chose the barren desert on the west bank in Luxor. They hid their mummies and treasures in narrow long tunnels dug in the heart of the mountain. This place is one of the most important archeological sites known as the Valley of the Kings.

Next, to complete the top attractions of the West bank in Luxor after the valley of kings, explore the mortuary temple of queen Hatshbsut. The queen is famous for being the first female pharaoh of ancient Egypt. Your private guide will tell you the story of the divine birth of the queeen. Look at the wall paintings and the beautiful design of the temple, which consists of three terraces. The third terrace was used as a monastery during the Christian era. Your guide will explain the history of the temple before giving you free time to explore the temple yourself and spend some time taking pictures of the highlights. Finally, stop at the colossi of Memnon. The two statues represent king Amenhotep III in a seated position. They are made of sandstone.
