Continue to the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut, one of the most unique monuments in ancient Egypt.
Built into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, the temple rises in a series of impressive terraces connected by ramps. Learn about the remarkable reign of Queen Hatshepsut, one of ancient Egypt’s most powerful and successful rulers.
