After the death of his husband, Queen Hatshepsut took over the kingdom and became the only woman pharao for 20 years. This was her mortuary temple and she is buried in the Valley of the Kings, not on the Valley of the Queens.
En la ribera oeste de Luxor, junto al Valle de los reyes está el templo mortuorio de Hatshepsut, la mujer faraón. Impresionante construcción y frescos.
