Love Egipto 🇪🇬 The Great Temple of Abu Simbel, in Nubia near Egypt's southern border, is among Egypt's most impressive monuments. It was cut into the living rock by King Ramses II (the Great) of the 19th dynasty, around 1264 B.C. C. The temple is best known for the four colossal seated statues that dominate its façade. One of these collapsed from an ancient earthquake, and its fragments can still be seen on the ground. | Love Egipto
