The Temple of the Dead of Hatshepsut, also known as Deir el Bahri, is located under massive cliffs near the west bank of the Nile and is dedicated to the sun god Amon-Ra. The temple was designed by an architect named Senemut and is unique because it was modelled after classical architecture. Note the long colonnaded terrace, some of which are 97 feet high, the pylons, the courtyards and the hypostyle hall. Inside, see the sun court, chapel, and sanctuary. Temple reliefs depict the story of the divine birth of Hatshepsut and trading expeditions to the land of Punt (a reference to modern Somalia or the Arabian Peninsula).
