Valley of the Kings

Valley of the Kings is a must see in Egypt. The burial place of a ton of historical figures including King Tut. Give yourself plenty of time when going though because it takes a long time to see everything.

very walkable, shops are very expensive but the tickets etc are pretty cheap, especially if you are a student

The Valley of the Kings, also known as the Valley of the Kings, is on the west bank of the Nile, the final resting place of the pharaohs of Egypt, the Valley of the Kings, or, more commonly, the tombs of the pharaohs, 1500-1000 BC, during their reign. The carved graves are all located in the pyramids of the valley. More than 60 graves have been excavated in the Valley of the Kings. The valley is also one of Egypt's famous attractions. The Valley of the Kings is also a huge khaki mountain from the outside. It is said that the Pharaohs in ancient Egypt admired the pyramid culture very much. Even thinking that being buried here is the most supreme glory, so finally chose the pyramid-like King Valley as a habitat to pay attention to: 1. The ticket contains three tombs, and it is officially random. You can only see which three today. There are several tombs that spend money alone that are opened every day, but you need to buy tickets separately. 2. The camera should be at the entrance, not far from the ticket office. You are not allowed to take pictures after entering the tomb. Otherwise, you will definitely be punished. People point to this life without warning you at all, and punish you directly. (You can give you $2 after you are caught) But you can buy a photo ticket at the ticket office 300. If you take a mobile phone photo, you can only take it outside, not in the tomb. Tickets: 240 Egyptian pounds, and Tutankhamun tomb alone buys 300 Egyptian pounds. Jingjiao car 5 pounds (15 minutes walk time: 6:00-17:00 Address: Luxor West Bank Transportation: After crossing the river by boat, it still needs 8 kilometers. After walking for 1 hour and 40 minutes, the hit will be black, but there is no way, there is no other transportation method.

Valley of the Kings - Luxor on the West Bank of the Nile River. There are 63 mausoleums of emperors and 64 Pharaohs buried between the 17th and 20th dynasties. The Valley of the Kings was once called the Great Cemetery of the Pharaohs of the Wandai Dynasty. This is a valley of few people, surrounded by steep cliffs, where the Pharaohs chose to bury in order to avoid burglaries. Photographs are strictly prohibited throughout the scenic area, which is a little regrettable.

The ancient Egyptians regarded the east bank of the Nile as a place of life, built temples, and the west bank of the Nile as a place of death, and built mausoleums. The Valley of the Emperors is rightly located on the west bank of the Nile. From the cruise ship, you can take a motorboat to the west bank and drive for 20 minutes. Although the Valley of the Emperors is buried with 64 pharaohs, the entire Valley of the Emperors is much smaller than expected, and it takes 20 minutes to walk back and forth. The pharaoh's chambers were carved into limestone cliffs, and some were still very close to the chambers, far from grand works like the pyramids. The luxury of the ancient emperor's tomb is proportional to the rise and fall of the dynasty, just like the early Tang Dynasty in China, Wu Zetian and Tang Gaozong's joint burial tomb was hollowed out a mountain and built, it can be seen that Egypt's national strength, financial resources and the construction of the Hufu pyramid period are no longer the same. Language. A ticket to the Valley of the Emperors can see three tombs for free, but the larger, more famous tombs are to be paid for separately, such as the most prestigious and legendary tomb of Tutankhamen. We didn't choose Tutankhamen in the end, because the treasures inside were all placed in the Egyptian Museum. Tombs that need to be bought again, we picked the tomb of Ramses VI, said to be the largest in the Valley of the Emperors. The first to go to the tomb of Ramses VI, the space inside this tomb is indeed very large, entering the inside does not feel depressed at all, the murals in the tomb are very beautiful, many murals are still brilliant as new. The coffin of the owner of the tomb is a whole snowflake stone carving, exquisite and unusual, but unfortunately the lid has been damaged by the tomb thief. Among the three tombs that are free to see, the more distinctive is the tomb of Totomos III. The tomb is repaired in the mountains. To enter the tomb room, you need to go up to the mountainside through the narrow tomb path, and then go down to the main tomb room. The murals in the tomb room are monochrome, the pattern is relatively simple, the coffin is also a simple sarcophagus, but strange: the sarcophagus is small, how the sarcophagus is transported in, this is another unsolved mystery on the magical land of Egypt. The Valley of the Emperors banned all photography and photography, and it was said that it could be taken by the point manager, but I never tried.

When it comes to Egypt, it usually immediately associates with the world-famous pyramids, but friends who have actually been to Egypt or are interested in history will surely come up with "Valley of Kings "]. The Valley of the Emperor is a valley where Egyptian Pharaohs are buried. More than 60 Pharaohs and their relics are buried in the Valley of the Emperor. The tomb is magnificent and luxurious.

Buried by many pharaohs, including Ramses II and the Valley of the Kings of Tutankhamun. You can visit 3 mausoleums with tickets, and you have to buy tickets if you want to visit more. However, the three mausoleums are quite tired to visit, each one is deep underground, and the stairs have to climb up and down. The appearance of the Imperial Valley is just a variety of hills. Every mausoleum entrance has a introduction to the master of the mausoleum and the interior. Unfortunately, the interior cannot be photographed. If you take pictures, there will be staff who ask you to pay. You can only remake a few postcards to feel it.
