Located between the Ramesseum and Hatshepsut’s Temple, the Tombs of the Nobles is situated on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Luxor, in Egypt. The site features hundreds of tombs carved into a rocky hillside, often richly decorated with frescoes depicting the working lives of their inhabitants. These include administrators, governors, and other figures of minor nobility. The tombs are not as well marked as the royal tombs and larger sites on the west bank, however, this lesser-visited gem is well worth the trip.
