The Valley of the Kings is a significant archaeological site in Egypt, located on the west bank of the Nile near Luxor. It served as the burial place for many pharaohs and powerful nobles during the New Kingdom period (circa 1550-1070 BCE). The valley is renowned for its elaborate tombs, including that of Tutankhamun, adorned with intricate wall paintings and inscriptions intended to aid the deceased in the afterlife. It represents the ancient Egyptians' beliefs about death and the afterlife, as well as their architectural and artistic achievements.
