Medinet Habu Pylon EG053441JHP Medinet Habu Temple Mortuary Ramses Ancient Egyptian Thebes Luxor Photograph located on the West Bank of the River Nile at Luxor and a complex of temples is now dominated by the mortuary temple of Ramasses 111. Apart from being in excellent condition generally, it offers much to see including some beautiful and detailed reliefs, the best coloured are in the second court and especially its scale. Not usually included in most standard tour packages, this temple is worth the effort to be visited privately.
