This is the main entrance to the temple of Ramses II ("the Great") in Abu Simbel, built in the 13th century B.C.E. in the desert of upper Egypt. The four colossal statues (two on each side of the temple entrance) are images of the man himself. This is one of the major Egyptian temples that was dismantled and moved in the 1960s, to save it from inundation when the Aswan dam was built and Lake Nasser created. The temple was reconstructed in what is essentially an artificial mountain.
