The Temple of Hatshepsut or the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut is a temple from the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt, and the best surviving of the temples built about 3,500 years ago in Deir el-Bahari in Egypt. It was built by Queen Hatshepsut on the west bank of the Nile opposite Thebes (the capital of ancient Egypt and the seat of the cult of Amun) (Luxor today). The Temple of Hatshepsut is distinguished by its unique architectural design compared to the Egyptian temples that were built on the east bank of the Nile in Thebes. The temple consists of three successive floors on open balconies. The temple was built of limestone, and in front of the columns of the second floor were erected limestone statues of the god Osiris and Queen Hatshepsut in a beautiful arrangement. Originally, these statues were colored, and now only some traces of the colors remain, and some of the statues are in very good condition, indicating the elegance and beauty of the temple's design.

The Valley of the Kings, also known as the Valley of the Gates of the Kings, is a valley in Egypt that was used for 500 years between the 16th and 11th centuries BC to construct tombs for the pharaohs and nobles of the New Kingdom (the 18th to 20th dynasties of ancient Egypt). The valley lies on the west bank of the Nile River opposite Thebes (modern-day Luxor) in the heart of the ancient mortuary city of Thebes. The Valley of the Kings is divided into two valleys; the Eastern Valley (where most of the royal tombs are located) and the Western Valley.

The Colossi of Memnon, known locally as the Colossi or Salamats, are two colossal statues, erected around 1350 BC. They are all that remains of a temple built to commemorate the pharaoh Amenhotep III, who ruled Egypt during the Eighteenth Dynasty. They are located in the funerary city of Thebes, located west of the Nile River from the present-day city of Luxor.
