Abu Simbel temple
Posted by 9b | Filed under World Heritage (2)
Abu Simbel temple where it had misgivings about going under water by Aswan high dam construction in the 1960’s. It is near the nasser lake that is the artificial lake that was able to be done by the south 280km and a Aswan high dam construction of Aswan.
The Abu Simbel temple was constructed with two [ramesesu] generations at the 19th dynasty of the ancient Egyptian new kingdom age. It is about 3300 years ago. Two [ramesesu] generations have left my colossus for the Carnac temple and Luxor castle. The self-endeavor for recognition might have been very strong. It is even if four two [ramesesu] generation images soar exactly in front of the wolf lord. The height is 20m. It is just overwhelmed to the size of the remainder. 22 baboons with which lining up on the colossus in a row is pleased with sunrise. The smile spills instinctively in the unique appearance.
Prisoner of war’s relief remains in this side of the entrance. The face such as African captives is obviously different from Arab.
There is an Abu Simbel small temple as quietly drawing close to the wolf lord next to the ..Abu Simbel temple.. accurate Abu Simbel wolf lord. It is a cave temple that two [ramesesu] generations built for the queen felt ant. Their children’s images are carved for one’s four two [ramesesu] generations, two [neferutoari] images, and one’s feets.
The show of the sound and light is held in the Abu Simbel temple at night. It starts from the relief of the temple by UNESCO, and the married love of the princess [neferutoari] and the history of the fight are unfolded with two [ramesesu] generations under starry sky. That heat in daytime breezes and the cool rush of night air breezes from the nasser lake like the lie.
Because the desire of the time of the eternity is won when the Abu Simbel temple of largeness and the smallness to which the light is improved is seen, and this wonderful ruins do not sink in the bottom of the water of the dam, I quite think it was really good.
