The two Temples of Abu Simbel with their unique style are considered to be the masterpieces of ancient Egypt. The Temple of Ramses II was dedicated to the four universal gods Ptah, Ra-Horakhty, Amun-Re, and to Ramses II himself. The great Abu Simbel temple is also called the Sun Temple of Ramses II. The Temple of Queen Nefertari is also Called the Temple of Hathor, who was the wife of the Sun God.
