The Colossi of Memnon in Luxor are two colossal statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, standing 18 meters tall and located at the entrance of his mortuary temple. These massive stone figures, representing the pharaoh seated with his hands resting on his knees, are renowned for their impressive scale and detailed carvings. Originally part of a larger temple complex, the statues are famous for their eerie "singing" sounds caused by temperature changes, a phenomenon that intrigued ancient and modern visitors alike.
