Abu Simbel is one of the most fascinating temples of Egypt, it was built by King Ramses II At Nubia. The temple is situated 280 km southwest of Aswan 40 km north of Sudan. the temple is unique because of the special facade of four huge statues of the king, each 25 meters high. The facade itself is 35 meters in height and 35 meters wide.
King Ramses built seven temples in Nubia, dedicating them to Egypt’s main gods, including himself as one.Abu Simbel temple clearly emphasizes this idea, with the four statues on the facade representing the gods Ra-Hor-Akhti, Ptah of Memphis, Amoun-Ra of Luxor, and Ramses II.
They are all represented on the façade in the form of Ramses himself, but inside the sanctuary, they are represented in their own forms and features. This is how King Ramses delivered the message that he is the origin of all 4 main gods.
