DamAbuSimbelTemple阿布辛貝神廟位于阿斯旺上游約300公里的尼羅河西岸，建于公元前1300~公元前1233年，由古埃及法老拉美西斯二世所建。神廟有大小兩座，系直接鑿刻在巖窟上的。大神廟祭禮拉美西斯二世、太陽神以及其他諸神。神廟入口處列有拉美西斯二世坐像，四尊中有一尊破損。門口上的小立像是太陽神，因?yàn)槊嫦驏|方，晨光可直接射入廟內(nèi)。這座以巨像石雕聞名的阿布辛貝神廟，廟高30米，縱深60米，門前4座高達(dá)20米的巨大石像，跨越三千年時間長河仍完好。Whyarethesetwoplacesrelatedtoeachothersoclosely?Backgroundknowledgeancient；traditional；cultural；upstreammodern;progress;economicPre-readingPredictionReadthetitleandlookatthephotos.Whatdoyouthinkthetextisabout?Probably,thetextisabouthowpeoplehavesolvedproblems____________________________________________________relatedtoculturalheritageinEgypt.Thetextisabout
