Valley of the Nobles The only people allowed to live in the Valley of Aristocrats were nobles. We cannot let others in.
Archaeologists have discovered hundreds of tombs in this area over many years. Wadi (Nobles’ Tombs) is an interesting look at some of these tombs. All the people who lived in this ancient city were buried here when they died. It was located on the western side of the Ni River, surrounded by huge sandstone cliffs on all sides.

Location:
You can travel to Luxor in Upper Egypt in less than an hour, or you can take a sleeper train from Cairo to Luxor and arrive at midnight. You can choose either of them (which takes about ten hours). You can drive there in less than an hour, or you can catch one of the planes that leave Hurghada every half an hour (about 4 hours).
You can drive there from Aswan or take a long cruise on the Nile. Both options are available to you (it will take about three hours).
History:
Thebes necropolis is located on the western side of the Nile, across the river from Luxor. Here the tombs of the nobles of ancient Egypt have been well looked after. There are a lot of graves in this area, and some of the most important courtiers and people who lived in the city in the past are buried there. There are many graves in this area.
People said they had heard that there were hundreds of graves in that area, some of which are missing and not yet found. People said they heard this news. During Egypt’s New Kingdom, it was common for the names of the dead to be engraved on their graves, along with a short prayer or another message. This was another common thing to do.
Although the tombs of the nobles are interesting, many tourists miss the opportunity to see them. This is because the tombs of the nobles are not as well known as the Valley of the Kings. There is a cemetery in the city with a lot of graves that have not yet been found. Most of them have been carved into the rocks, and most of them contain beautiful artwork that shows how people lived in the past.
Even if you couldn’t look around the entire complex, you might still find graves like those of Sinofer, who was the mayor of Thebes at the time of his death. This shrine contains a large number of amazing and unique artworks that will amaze you. Some of them show grapes and things related to the harvest.
Without a doubt, the tomb of Nabil Ramouz will be one of the most interesting places we visit on our trip. Tourists may be able to get a feel of how Egyptian culture worked in the time of Akhenaten, who was one of the first kings to follow a monotheistic religion. Akhenaten was also one of the first rulers to build the pyramids.
During archaeological excavations in this particular region, more than 450 noble tombs were found. They are on the west bank of ancient Egypt, not far from the Nile. People with more money and status, such as generals, aristocrats, and government workers, tended to cemeteries with more elaborate tombstones and other memorials.
Most people who come to the cemetery do so as part of a guided tour, as there are only about 15 graves that the general public can visit on their own. Across the street from the Ramesseum, you can find these tombs.
