Carved into the rock in the Theban Mountain, this three-terraced temple, built in 1455 BC, is both harmonious and modern. Though dedicated to the god Amun, it also contains chapels dedicated to Anubis and Hathor, the goddess who protects women. This is not surprising, as Hatshepsut, one of the four female pharaohs to have ruled Egypt, is considered “the first great woman whose name has been preserved by history.” After the visits, depart by bus for Hurghada.

The Unfinished Obelisk of Aswan is an impressive remnant located in an ancient granite quarry in Upper Egypt. Commissioned during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut, it was intended to be the largest obelisk ever constructed, reaching about 42 meters in height and... see+ weighing an estimated 1,200 tons. However, a crack that appeared during the carving process halted the work, leaving the monument incomplete and still attached to the bedrock.
Today, the site provides a unique insight into the working methods of ancient Egyptian stonecutters. Visitors can observe extraction techniques, tool marks, and the monumental logistics involved in creating such structures.
