Medinet Habu, otherwise known as the Temple of Ramses III, is one of the greatest temples of the twentieth dynasty. It was built by King Ramses III and dedicated to Amun-Ra, the main god of ancient Egypt at the time. The temple also functioned as a funerary temple for Ramses III, meaning his funeral rites were performed there, before being buried in one of the many tombs in the Valley of the Kings. Funerary temples in Luxor, such as Medinet Habu, are also known as ‘temples of million years’ to indicate that they are meant to last for eternity. Medinet Habu was the largest funeral temple built on the West Bank of Luxor, and exhibits the deepest carvings of all ancient monuments in the region, including a famous scene of the Libyans and the Sea Peoples, which makes this temple very unique and interesting. Our Egyptologist Khaled will show and tell you everything!
