Abu Simbel Temple located in the south of Aswan along the shore of Lake Nasser, is the most famous in all of Egypt after the Giza pyramids. Built by the greatest of the pharaohs, Ramesses II, making them also known as the Temple of Ramesses II or Ramesses II, these massive rock-cut temples marked the southern frontier of the Egyptian Empire with Nubia at the height of its power during the New Kingdom.
The four statues that guard the entrance leading to the largest of these temples are the largest statues that have survived from the ancient Pharaonic era.
