The Tomb of Queen Nefertari is located in the Egyptian Valley of Queens in Luxor. Nefertari was the most cherished companion to Rameses II and has one of the most extensive surviving tombs, especially for a Queen. The walls of the tomb are filled with vivid images from mythology and Nefertari, depicting her life, personality and journey to heaven.
The ceiling is painted a deep blue to mimic the night sky and has golden five-pointed stars. The paintings within the tomb are the best surviving documentation of an Ancient Egyptian’s journey to the afterlife, and the other mythological images help ascertain the roles of many gods and goddesses. It is best to visit in the early mornings when the crowds are less. You can reach the Valley of Kings by taxi or ferry across the Nile, and you may even hike to it.
