Hatshepsut's Temple is the mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Located on the West Bank in Luxor, this spectacular temple was built by Queen Hatshepsut's architect, Senenmut, in honour of the only woman ever to reign over Egypt as Pharaoh.

Hatshepsut's Temple is set against towering cliffs in the Theban Hills and attracts hundreds of tourists every day. This unique temple, with its many monumental ramps, fine terraces, elegant columns and hieroglyphic paintings, is one of the most impressive sites in the Necropolis.

Hatshepsut's Temple tells the story of Hatshepsut's journey to the Land of Punt (which is believed to be modern-day Somalia) to bring back treasures such as ebony, ivory, gold, perfumes and myrrh trees.
