We crossed the Nile to the Valley of the Kings, where all the ancient pharaohs were buried. We saw Rameses the third, King Tut, Rameses the ninth, and Rameses the seventh. There tombs had beautiful designs and the colors were more vibrant, than the ones in the temples because it hadn’t been exposed to the light so the colors were kept nicely. Then we went to the temple of Hatshepsut, but we did not see much of her, for her son, Thutmose, erased her from history because when it was time to pass on down the throne, she stayed. So when she died, Thutmose set out to remove her name in history, defacing her from the temple walls, and covering up her name. After we visited Hatshepsut’s temple, we saw the tombs of noble men.
