Temple of Beit el-Wali, Egyptian temple of Ramesses II in Nubia, Egypt.
The Temple of Beit el-Wali features detailed carvings on its walls depicting battle scenes and religious ceremonies from ancient Egyptian times.
Built during the reign of Ramesses II in the 13th century BCE, this rock-cut temple was relocated in the 1960s due to the Aswan Dam construction.
The interior walls contain preserved paintings and reliefs showing tributes from Nubia, with Ramesses II receiving offerings alongside his sons.
Visitors can access the temple site through guided tours departing from Aswan, with transportation options available from local travel agencies.
The temple maintains substantial original paint in its inner chambers, revealing the authentic colors used by ancient Egyptian artists.
