The Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, known as the Djeser-Djeseru, stands as an ancient Egyptian temple situated in Upper Egypt. Constructed for the Eighteenth Dynasty pharaoh Hatshepsut, it rests below the cliffs at Deir el-Bahari on the western bank of the Nile, in close proximity to the Valley of the Kings.

The Colossi of Memnon, also known as el-Colossat or es-Salamat in Arabic, are comprised of two enormous stone statues portraying Pharaoh Amenhotep III from Egypt's Eighteenth Dynasty. These statues have stood for more than 3,400 years, dating back to 1350 BC, within the Theban Necropolis, located west of the River Nile, in the vicinity of modern Luxor.

The Valley of the Kings, alternatively referred to as the Valley of the Gates of the Kings, is a renowned archaeological site located on the west bank of the River Nile in Egypt. This valley served as the burial site for pharaohs and powerful nobles during the New Kingdom period, spanning approximately 500 years from the 16th to the 11th century BCE. The valley contains a multitude of elaborately decorated tombs carved into the rock, each intended to safeguard the remains and treasures of the deceased for their journey to the afterlife. Excavations within the Valley of the Kings have revealed significant insights into ancient Egyptian funerary practices, providing invaluable knowledge about the beliefs and rituals surrounding death and the afterlife in this ancient civilization.
