It is a part of the Nubian Monuments a UNESCO's World Heritage Site. The Great Temple Belong to Pharaoh Ramesses 2 and the other one located about 100 meters away from the Great Temple is that of Hathor (an Egyptian Goddess) and Nefertari.

From the page: "Egypt; no doubt has the richest collection archaeological monuments, the first and the foremost being the colossal Pyramids other objects go without adequate attention; this twin temple of Ramesses the Pharaoh Emperor and Nefertari is one such. The twin rock temple is also famous for historical relocation from its former position between two rock cliffs and the river (under threat of submergence); to the present site which involved tremendous efforts, technology and resources, a relocation of such a massive structure was so far unheard of in history."
