Visit the Pyramids of Giza, Egypt with a virtual tour.

The Valley of the Kings in Egypt is filled with the tombs of pharaohs, which have contributed to Egypt's fame today. Around 500 years ago, this western area along the Nile River became the burial site for the most powerful men of Egypt. Stone temples were built here between the 11th and 16th centuries BC, and archaeologists are still discovering new temples. Although only a few of these temples are open to the public, Egypt's tourism organization has provided the opportunity to visit some of these temples via a virtual tour.

Ramesses VI Nebmaatre Meryamon, the fifth pharaoh of the 20th dynasty of Egypt, ruled Egypt for 8 years from the mid to late 12th century BC. After his death, he was placed in a temple that archaeologists call KV9. Interestingly, Ramesses VI did not build this temple for himself; instead, he used the temple of his predecessor, his nephew Ramesses V, who had ruled before him!

After transferring his nephew to another temple, Ramesses VI used his nephew's temple. However, before doing so, he made some changes to it. For example, he made the temple slightly larger and changed its interior decor. Thanks to a virtual tour, we can now enjoy the grandeur of this interior. The presented design closely resembles the original and includes a series of corridors that ultimately lead to a main room for the pharaoh’s burial.

The first corridor is decorated with images of Ramesses VI alongside Osiris, the god of the underworld and the second world. Initially, these walls were adorned with images of Ramesses V, but Ramesses VI replaced them with images of himself. In other corridors, specific texts about guiding the soul to the afterlife before burial are written.
