[Mennon Colossus] is also called [Mennon Colossus], and the positioning also has "Mannon Colossus" written. They are two rock giants standing on the west bank of the Nile River and on the field between the Valley of the Kings. This statue was originally built by Amonhotep III, during the heyday of the New Kingdom. Two ordinary stone statues, but in the ears of posterity, I heard the legend that these two stone statues can sing. It is said that this one on the right side of the Monong giant will make a boundless sound at sunrise every morning. Many travelers have said that, They heard a sad song here, and the ancient Greeks linked this phenomenon to the story of the capture of Troy. But scientists believe that this is actually a very common natural phenomenon, the sound is due to the sudden change of temperature from cold to hot at sunrise, and the heat generated by the first solar rays in the early morning, passing through the body of the stone, making it emit the sound of gold stones, This creates a phenomenon where stone statues sing. The name of the statue of Monon, derived from the ancient Greek mythology, Monon is a king in Greek mythology, he won the Trojan War, but was killed by the queen sympathizer, according to historical records, during the Roman reign, there was an earthquake, so that the statue appeared cracks, whenever the wind rose, The giant statue will make a sound like a man crying, like singing a sad song. Because the temple behind the statue has been completely destroyed, people can not understand the true meaning of the statue, the Greek myth of the pathetic Mennon named the statue, but unfortunately, in 200 AD a good Roman emperor ordered repair, the already dilapidated stone statue, from now on, The crying statue of Meng Nong will never cry again. Tickets: free, just on the roadside time: unlimited address: Al Bairat, Luxor, Luxor Governorate Transportation: 3 kilometers, 40 minutes walk, you can also hit about 10-20 pounds, the price is not expensive but the price is increased by black cars.

Renting a bicycle is good, you can stop anywhere you can go [naughty] Ramses III's mausoleum is also called the Hab Temple, and in the Coptic era, it was a quite large city [dazed] and its area is second only to the Temple of Amon. It was the last great construction project of the Pharaoh period and the monument of the last rich period of ancient Egypt. It was originally a royal residence, the first courtyard was a place for ceremonies and entertainment, and the second courtyard was occupied by churches during the Ptolemy and Roman times. In addition, there are three multi-pillar halls, and the outer left of the second hall is the tomb of Ramses III. The exterior wall of the temple is engraved with famous panoramic reliefs.

Valley of the Kings is a must see in Egypt. The burial place of a ton of historical figures including King Tut. Give yourself plenty of time when going though because it takes a long time to see everything.

Located in the valley, directly below the cliff, it is very impressive. There is still a short road after entering the gate of the scenic spot. You can take the scenic car and come to the long lift. This is a building that enters the architecture textbook.
