Temple of Hatshetsut Egypt (video)

Awesome, sadly I don't feature us ever seeing Egypt up close but definitely somewhere I always wanted to go. Thank you for sharing!

Is that the next decorating job for yourself and Sue, T.Weed. If so I'd set aside a bit more than a week-end.

with my high pressure steam cleaner and a couple of jars of red paint it would only take a day at the most.

this was built for the Egyptian queen but she never stayed there.

Just a few painted daisys on the wlls to finish of the overall effect would do it I think

Abu simbel. this was reconstructed here when Lake Nasser was built and would have been under water. it is exactly as was and rebuilt exactly stone by stone.

Even the exhibits in New York are breath-taking, can only imagine these statues up close.

It's on my bucket list Really love to see it

Physically you can't get close to them



But photographically you can

when we were there they had stopped excavation because as soon as the figures were exposed to the air all the colours faded away.
the location of the actual emperors tomb is known whose army you know about but not going to betouched until this problem is solved
