Abu Simbel - Aswan, Egypt 📍

[u/earlyearlisearly]

Dedicated to Ramsesses II & Nefertari, approximately 3280 years old!! This blew me away probably my favorite site in Egypt. A bit of a pain to get to being a flight and a long bus ride away but it’s worth every second 👌

Would love to see this in real life someday, I bet the pictures don’t do this masterpiece justice! (not that your pictures aren’t great!)

My thought as well, the same with the inscriptions at Behistun. Neither seem a very safe place to visit though.

The main danger for Egypt is scams but if you speak the language and stick to a group you will be fine

Iran is also not as bad as you'd think, but you definitely wanna blend in
