Temple of Karnak
Karnak or the Karnak temple complex is a group of temples, buildings and columns, where expansion and construction continued since the Pharaonic era, specifically the kings of the Middle Kingdom until the Roman era in Luxor in Egypt. The temple was named by this name in relation to the city of Karnak, which is a modern name distorted from the Arabic word Khornaq, which means the fortified village, which was given to many temples in the region during this period. While the temple was initially known as "Bar Amun", meaning the Temple of Amun or the House of Amun, and during the Middle Kingdom it was called Ibt Sut, which means the most chosen of places (sometimes translated as the chosen spot).This name was found on the walls of the chapel of Senusret I in Pylon III. The temple was also known by many names, including Nisut-Twa, which means the throne of the two states, and Ebit Iset, which means the most wonderful residence

Temple of Hatshepsut or the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut is a temple from the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt, and the best remaining temples were built about 3500 years ago in Deir el-Bahari, Egypt. It was built by Queen Hatshepsut on the west bank of the Nile opposite to Thebes (the capital of ancient Egypt and the seat of the Amun worship) (Luxor today). The Temple of Hatshepsut is distinguished by its unique architectural design, in comparison to the Egyptian temples that were built on the eastern bank of the Nile at Thebes. The temple consists of three successive floors with open terraces. The temple was built of limestone, and in front of the second floor columns were erected limestone statues of the god Osiris and Queen Hatshepsut in a beautiful distribution. Originally, those statues were colored, and now only some monuments remain of the colors, and some statues are in very good condition, indicating the elegance and beauty of the temple's design.
