What Egyptian temple do you find the most beautiful?
Definitely this one ! Are there any other Egyptian temples that are blended with the nature/landscape around them ?
For sure this one.Horizontal lines.Perfect proportion
This is wonderful, but, for me, the hypostyle hall at Karnak must come first.
This one and Abu Simbel. But, seriously, I want your job maan. I love ancient civilizations and their artistic expressions. Keep up with the good work!
Edfu Temple I loved because its so well preserved.
My elderly mother is fascinated with ancient Egypt and has traveled there several times. She is now bedridden but loves watching your videos. She feels like you are taking her back to Egypt. Thank you so much.
Thank you! I'm glad she enjoys them!
peace be with her!
@@pud4272 Thank you, friend!
Awwww this comment made me tear up, plz hug your mama from me. If she asks “what was that for?” Just tell her a strange lady on the internet sent it. 🥰
@@Miss_Camel Thank you! You are kind!! 🥰😇
As someone who is fascinated with Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome I am really enjoying your video’s. I hope to one day make it to Egypt and see theses wonders of the world myself.
Went there last summer. LOVED it!
Thank you for another quality video 😊
Congrats!!!
Скалы защищают от ветра. И врага.
One of the world's most impressive feats of architectural beauty.
It’s mind boggling how old and still how beautiful and well preserved this is.
I remember in 1994 visiting Hatshepsut Temple in the valley of the Queens, I can still feel the heat of Sun from that day on my arms - it was Magical. Thanks you for bringing back those memories. This site was more Magical than thevalley of the Kings.
Did u mean valley of kings?
@@JaMorantfan420 No Valley of the Queens, Valley of the Kings was about 4Km down the road and a lot more closed in with narrow pathways.
@@GodsVibes oh, well thank you for teaching me something I only knew KV

I love seeing the recreations of the ancient buildings, it’s like seeing them come alive once more.
Culture and History are bright. Great videos !
Egypt used to look amazing! With no ruins, everything painted, and vegetation!
Yeah, I didn't know until recently that they pretty much painted everything. It makes me wonder what this stuff looked like new. Since well before photography even it's been stone with some things painted, the things that have lasted. How much of what was painted is completely gone to where it looks to us as though it was never painted? I'm sure different materials used, paint mixtures and dyes lasted due to the different sources in the paint (also location and exposure to sun.) It would be wild to see how it looked new (color schemes that we don't know about), even drop by for a visit to the one that was 500 years earlier. Who knows if this happened, but if the 500 year earlier one had been faithfully maintained during that time too? Or had it turned into an old place to them and seriously in need of restoration with the painting of certain things?
Serious Sam the First Encounter
I have been to this temple. It was like dreaming. Thanks, Manuel for all your videos.🙏 ❤
I have watched hundreds of videos on ancient Egypt over the years, and I say your videos are among the absolute best: great visuals and explanations. It is as if you have an inert sense of what should be shown and discussed. I am grateful to you.
I really appreciate the recreation of landscaping around the structures. I always thought that ancient Egyptians, and Greeks and Romans would have loved beautiful plants and greenery adjacent to their buildings, but you basically never see any of that in pictures and drawings.
It was the place for the family to came togather in the evenings when the sun was low and it was cooler. A pool in the center of the garden, with lotus plants in it, brought additional cooling.
In the temples there were gardens where plants for making perfumes grew. It is part of the ritual that the figures of the gods were rubbed with fragrant oils every day.
Temples were places of beautiful fragrances.
I have visited this temple twice and every time it mesmerized me with its extremely modern design and its majestic beauty. Very good documentary!
I know where is Rocket Launcher hidden from Serious Sam: First encounter game
preparing for an exam , this video helped me in visual learning. thanks a lot manuel. Love from India !
This is the best video I have ever seen with so much detail in-depth. This is awesome. It's as if I'm standing right there. I get such a vibe. Looking at this all the history of the culture, this is just absolutely beautiful. Thank you
Fabulous video - was just there today and was dying to see a reconstruction of this gorgeous temple. Thank you for posting.
Couple of tips-
On the side of Mentuhotep’s monument there are falcon gods decorating flat columns all along that side and there’s a second Sphinx recently installed at entrance.
Also the temple originally had gardens that ran all the way to the Nile purposely lining up w Karnak temple on an east-west axis which served to receive the barque of Amun-Re for their annual festival.
I can send you pictures of the falcon columns on the side if you’re interested.
Amazing video overall!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I’m so glad ancient Egyptians didn’t have weed and PS5s.
I wish egypts tourist and archaeological departments would come together and replant the temples garden terraces again. What we see is magical, but missing the gardens would show how breathtaking the whole temple would have been, and also embody the physical progress from the lush greenery, fruit and flowers and herbs of life into the temple of stone, barrenness and death, before returning back outside into the Egyptians idea of a lush paradise in heaven.
It would explain and educate tourists about the Egyptians idea of life and death, but also become a huge beautiful jewel in encouraging tourists back to Egypt since the civil upheval.
Greetings from Egypt. Well done !
Felicidades,otro trabajo fascinante,como anillo al dedo.Considerando el templo más hermoso y una de las gobernantes más audaces y creativas.Hatshepsut definitivamente una hermosa y brillante mujer para toda la eternidad♥️
Ever since I was a child I was fascinated by this temple and the story of Hatshepsut. I expect to be able to visit it sometime within the next 5 years. Your video is excellent. I found your channel yesterday and immediately subscribed. I'll be watching this video a second time, with the sound off and at 0.5x speed so that I can thoroughly enjoy your photography, as I have enjoyed your explanations this first time watching it.
The Romans, seeing Egyptian buildings, decided it would be a good idea to use them in a functional capacity. Egypt helped start our technological ascendancy. Thanks, guys!
"Ready for battle!"
I'm fascinated too with Ancient Eygpt and all ancient sites around the world. From their deep cultural significance to their spiritual philosophies, which affect people still to this day..as we try to encapsulate on their timelines
Location of Punt is well known, it's located in the modern region known as Somalia, Somalia is where Frankincense grows & the depictions show people in the region building homes on stilts to avoid flood waters.
A masterpiece ahead of it's time.
In ancient times this mortuary temple had terraced gardens as part of the design. Punt to the best of my knowledge would be modern day Somalia
What's good in ancient egypt is women in that era can rule..
The temple was rebuilt by Omm Sety. R.I.P: Omm Sety.
😀. 💘💘💘💘. 👉. 😀
I think i going there next month 🤔
6:16 Batteries. 🔥🔥
Hi Manuel. Any plans on doing a video on Chichen Itza?
Such progress during that age. Beautiful and extraordinary. Egypt has such a rich history which never fails to fascinate people. The imaginations, minds and talents that created such things.
Sam : Ahh, my old lovee! only legends know it!
Only me an you as every comment says how greatfull they are for this video like srsl WTF🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😍
Wasnt she the one who adopted Moses
Manuel you make some of the BEST videos on TH-cam. Never stop! ❤️
That would be nice to see if they put the gardens back and the pools of water
Wish I had seen your videos before going to Egypt. Then would have noticed all the elements you are talking about in your video. Our guide was not that great. This was the first time I saw a video explaining from the architecture perspective.
“Ready for battle”
Egypt is the mother of Western civilization, everything we call Greek is originally Egyptian including architecture
I love the clearly dark brown skin depicted by the ancient Egyptians. True Africans left a great depiction of themselves for future generations.
Excellent post! Thank you for sharing all the best details of this magnificent monument! ❤
Hatshepsut was an amazing Pharaoh. I believe Amenhotep II tried to erase her memories because they blame her for the Exodus. She saved Moses and was the ultimate cause of everything that happened.
Punt is modern day Somalia,Ethiopia and parts of Kenya.That was considered their homeland
If extraterrestrials were to land on earth and ask what is the single finest work of architecture on your planet, I would have to pick the Temple of Hatshepsut. Only the Parthenon, the Pantheon, and perhaps Louis Kahn’s Yale Museum of British Art rival this temple. But they all subtly lack its majesty and almost divine simplicity. It’s too bad she was perceived as such a threat to the pharaohs that followed her. But for all that it’s beautiful preserved.
Thank you very much I enjoyed it very much looking forward to seeing many outstanding more of your videos
I m here i saw this in my dreams that got peeled n saw 7 tomb standing. I have never been to Egypt not even had idea of this place was searching on Google n found this is the same place . Something god is brging change
Aren't the "falcons resting upon coiled cobras" actually resting upon "cartuches"?
In love with your channel!
Another fabulous video! ❤🥰

Those ancient Egyptians were certainly ahead of their time, especially in providing wheelchair accessibility to the temples! 😎
I've heard that this Temple is extremely haunted. I heard that no one goes in there at night.
Did they ever recorded these hauntings?
also, it would be nice (and the most educational) to do a documentary on Persepolis (over 2500year old) in order to see the origins of some many later traditions, be impressed by the "biggest and largest" all over that gigantic ruin.
Persepolis is beautiful. It must have been extraordinary when first built. I too would like to see a good documentary on it.
Very interesting, thank you from New Mexico, USA
I love these videos! I can't wait to see what's next after you show us all the amazing sites you went to in Egypt
@10:29 I take it its a thing to go up in a hot air balloon here. I imagine it's beautiful. Night time, full moon, ancient temple . . . Yeah.
been here, never knew why the left size od the temple was destroyed ( left side of the actual temple there was another temple connected to this one) always wondered that never found anything on net or there on the spot, just a small model of it before you go to the actual site that depicted the left temple as it was and the actual ruins of it standing, but thanks to this i know its a different building temple of mentuhotep
I do hope if my legs continue to be strong, we will visit the spectacular temple😁🤗 what a woman
Most fascinating place on planet earth for me!
Where are the aliens?
Why did I just learn about this today? Been to college and would have loved to learn about this
Saludos desde Toluca México ♥️🇲🇽
I saw this temple in 2007 when it was been renovated I'd live to go back and see it finished.i saw all the big tourists attractions in Egypt and along with the pyramids and the valley this temple was just as impressive.and it would of been awesome to see it all painted instead of just sand stone
Mis respetos, tus videos como siempre muy completos y entretenidos, saludos desde Xalapa Veracruz!
We both evidently got that date of death which coincides with my date of birth.
The name on the wall actually appears to be Menkhepera, Thutmoses……
Why are her successors tried to erase her influence? Thats just stupid
Where can you by the entry ticket for the temple of hatshepsut?
0:20 you can see how the sphyinx was once a lion and the egyptians shaped it the head of a pharao of a human
Hatshepsut was really interested and related to the land of punt which is modern day somalia
I appreciated the views of the temple reliefs I had not seen before.
nuclear plant 100%
Nah it was the first gaming pc
I think this is how Serious Sam 1 started, from this place
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Wonderful presentation. Should be used in lectures and schools.
This is a wonderful tour, thank you.
Amasing images. And very sharp. Thank you so much.
Why are pharaohs depicted with false beards? I was told a rumor that ancient egypt was actually matriarchal, and as women don’t grow beards, they wore false beards. What do u think? I’m excited to read your answers!
Isn't everyone bald and shaved that time? And also since they have massive lice problems-everyone pretty much is depicted with fake hair, eyebrows, and beards.
Idk just answered it with common sense. If anyone can back it up with actual historical data, it'd be good. im too lazy to take a google search
The Greeks learnt from the Egyptians
Ozymandias: Looks upon her works and despairs.
Ad about worsening something by trying to make it better. I definitely agree with that sadistic stupid blind about it all wicked disgusting psychopathic stance about it all towards me
I already am who I am illuminated on Earth. Who else am I supposed to be more than who I already am illuminated on Earth
Sources of water flow toward monument plz
Her divine birth maybe connected to Jesus?
Visited in early 2020 - magnificent
This was an awesome level in Serious Sam.
“Ready for battle!”
Большое спасибо вам за такое познавательное видео!
I am amazed by your videos. It is so interesting getting to know more about Egypt and the Egyptian empire. Thank you for sharing knowledge.
There was nothing called egyt empire
Egypt is new country name
This was called kemet and nubia.
Una maravilla de Egipto. Gracias, Manu!
Great job bubba 👍 💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜
I always remember our guide saying how to pronounce Hatshepsut: "It's like me: hat, cheap suit".
This funerary temple is the most architecturally perfect building in the world. I have been in it! It is extraordinarily beautiful.😺
5:02 These destroyed statues is clearly from the time when Egypt was conquered by Islam.
4:45 the bimini wall now also in hawaii
Este video lo tenés en español??? Desde ya muchas gracias
Pronto lo podrás encontrar en el canal, ¡saludos!
