Egypt : Land Before TimeWritten by Steven N. Ng
Continued from page 1
Almost everyone has heard of Sphinx with its missing nose, and some might wonder how he actually lost his nose. (Do not believe what you saw in Disney cartoon Aladdin) Almost everyone has seen many pictures, or perhaps Discovery channel, showing Sphinx in various angles. But you have to visit it, to stand there right next to it, to realize why both Sphinx and Pyramids are most famous man-made structures in world. Just front paw of Sphinx is larger than a human being! The Wonders of Nile The architectural wonders of ancient Egypt are not limited to those at Giza. As you travel along Nile River (incidentally longest river in world), you will come across other monuments. Chief of these is Valley of Kings near Luxor. It is here that many kings from many of ancient Egyptian dynasties were entombed. Each tomb is unqiue and is a wonder in its own right. Unfortunately, most of treasure that was entombed with pharaohs have long been stolen by tomb raiders. Only well-hidden tomb of Tutankhamun managed to survive more or less intact to this day. Further south, near town of Aswan, are famous temples of Abu Simbel. Constructed during reign of Ramses II, better known as Ramses Great, these two temples feature much-larger-than-life statues guarding entrances. And beautiful hieroglyphs still adorn walls of temples. The few monuments I've mentioned are just a small fraction of many wonders that can be found in Egypt. If you have any interest in ancient civilizations, or want to know more about wonders of ancient Egypt, you owe it to yourself to visit this ancient land before its wonders are eventually swept away by sands of time.
