Temple

• One of Hatshepsut main accomplishments...is
  her temple, also know as her funerary complex,
  located in Deir el-Bahri Egypt. Built by her
  architect Senenmut, the temple was set and built
  at the head of a valley overshadowed by the Peak
  of Thebes, where a goddess was living. An avenue
  of sphinxes lined up and led up to the temple,
  where many ramps also led from terrace to
  terrace. Also lined up inside of the temple, are
  statues of Hatshepsut smiling over the valley,
  and other statues and sphinxes.
