The Valley of the Kings was a necropolis in ancient Egypt. In ancient Egypt, the Valley of the Kings was called Sechet-aat (large field).
This is the largest burial place of the Egyptian pharaohs. In particular, the tombs of the rulers of the new kingdom can be found in the Valley of the Kings. The valley is located in western Thebes, opposite Karnak, on the edge of the desert and surrounded by high mountains.
Despite thousands of years of excavation and looting, the Valley of the Kings still provides Egyptologists with many extremely valuable tomb finds. In 1922, Tutankhamen’s tomb was discovered almost intact by Howard Carter.

The first clearly identified tomb in the Valley of the Kings belongs to Pharaoh Thutmose I. Napoleon’s expedition to Egypt marked the beginning of a systematic search and opening of the tombs. In the Valley of the Kings you will visit three tombs.
