Relax and discover a day trip to Abu Simbel from Aswan by flight in around 30 minutes to Abu Simbel, famous for the great Sun Temple of Ramses II and the Temple of Queen Nefertari which were discovered in 1813 and were almost completely covered with sand. Then both Temples were moved in 1960 by the help of the Egyptian Government and UNESCO to avoid the rising waters of the Nile. Ramses II built the Temples mostly to honour himself as inside there is a mural depicting his famous victory at the Battle of Qadesh where his army defeated their enemies. On the North of Ramses Temple, the Nefertari Temple was built by Ramses II in honour of his favourite wife Queen Nefertari amongst another 200 wives and concubines.
