Medinet Habu

The sanctuaries of the temple are dedicated to the Theban Tried — Mut, Amun, and Khonsu. However, the best reliefs on the temple are outside — they are hard to see and quite faint and best seen when they are shadowed. The entire temple was built by Ramesses III (not a series of pharaohs) and so the entire structure is well designed nad seems very complete.,
