If you have the chance to visit the complex inside, you will enjoy the amazing Sound & Light show which is a fabulous show that includes many stories about the ancients and how they managed to establish such a great civilization.
Among the most sacred locations for the ancients is the breathtaking Valley Temple where there were many purification & mummification processes a.k.a the opening of the mouth ceremony taking place in the site to preserve the state of the king’s body in its initial state to be absolutely ready for the upcoming journey and to the afterlife as the ancients had strong religious beliefs in such things and this can be witnessed while being in the valley.
