Valley of Noblemen

Noblemen were some of the powerful courtiers like doctors, Craftsmen, artisans, scribes, and workers who built and decorated the tombs in the valley of the kings and valley of the queens. Noblemen have their rock-cut tombs in an area called Sheikh Abd EL Korna. At the tombs of the valley of Nobles, you can follow the difference and the change from the repeated scenes in the tombs of the kings and queens to the scenes which concern life.

The noblemen toms are small in size but great in value. Here there are more than 400 tombs, of which only 7 is of high interest, Those of Rekhmire, Sennofer, Ramose, Userhat, Khaemhat, Nakht, and Menna. The entrance ticket for 2 tombs only but you can add 2 more or 4 tombs to enjoy more and more details(against charge)

Deir El Madina

Deir El Madina is one of the places you do not have to miss while you are on the West Bank of Luxor. Deir El Madina is the main source of information about the workers, artists, and craftsmen who decorated the valley of the kings and the valley of the queens.

Deir El Madina name

The name was given to the place after the Christian converted the temple of the goddess Hathor into church and church means Dier in Arabic so it means the church of the monastery of the town.

The place was discovered between “1905-1909” and they found a village, cemetery, temple and a large amount of Ostracs, almost 5000 pieces which tell about their daily life.

Deir El Madina is the mine of information about the worker’s life, relations, vacations, salaries, and work system. week counted in that time 10 days and normally workers had 2 days off in which they can go and visit their families and rest from work. On your Luxor day tour to the west bank, you have a big chance to touch the appreciation that the workers and the artisans gain in that era. your guide will answer the questions you may have in mind like, were they slaves or free? where did they live and work? were they allow to deal with the public or not? how were the designs of their houses, their tombs, and why they choose their city to be to the west bank of the river?

• Non-Catholics can enter the Vatican and non-Christians are welcomed at churches around the world. While not all the holy mosques of Egypt are off-limits to non-Muslims. All the historical mosques are open for the visit of Muslims/non-Muslims alike like Mohamed Ali Mosque within the Citadel, Amr Ibn El Ass mosque, Ibn Tulun mosque, El Refae mosque, Madrassa of Sultan Hassan and Al Azhar mosque. However, there are protocols which must be followed. Always remember a mosque is a place of prayer and worship for Muslims. It is not a museum.

The answer is between yes and no. in most of the sightseeing it is allowed to take photos and make your trip memorable but there are other places in which you can not take even your camera with you for example Egyptian Museum, Valley of the kings, inside any of the Pyramid, inside the tombs in Sakkara, tombs of noblemen in Luxor, valley of the queens in Luxor.
