The great temple of Abu Simbel is reached by a short flight from Aswan and is dedicated to the glory of Pharaoh Ramses II. Four gigantic statues of the great Pharaoh himself dominate its front. He had this temple built in this otherwise desolate place on the site of a much older shrine of a local personification of the god Horus. The towering statues are 60 feet in height and the most photographed phenomenon in Egypt.
