While they are getting into the Abu Simbel, Lonnie starts wondered. "This is the whole mountain; how they carried all of this to here?" Scotty and Picker agree for that wondering. Miki laughs for that question. "Thanks for that wondering, Lonnie. But that hill is the plastic one, only the Abu Simbel's structure is the real."
When they will get entering in the place, Makoto shows the two-side high relief carving to everyone. "Those are Nubians and Hittites force, were caught by Ramsses II. It's to show and terrorise to enemies.
After getting inside, all big Ramsses II's statues are stood each pillar. On the wall, Miki is telling them about 'The Battle of Nasser', and to show that Ramsses II is the great warrior, until needed the mercy from him. Next picture, it's show that Ramsses II slashed the enemy without mercy. And the next picture, the Pharaoh could catch all enemies.
Now, they are at the highlight of this place. There are 4 statues at the front of them. But first, "Which one isn't the God among those?", Cater asks everyone. Edward who fun with a riddle, looks at those statues without winking his eyes. "Uh......do you mean the second from the right, huh? Because it's headwear is not high as the god." Miki nods for that answer. "You're correct, Ed. The second from the right is Ramsses II. He wanted to make equal himself to the God." Then, Makoto describes more. "The left hand on him is Ra-Horakhty. The right hand beside him is Amun Ra. And the conner one is Ptah, the creator-God and maker of things, a patron of craftsmen, especially sculptors.
Then, Makoto is talking about the amazing of this place. "As you see behind", and he points behind. "All doors are matched until the entrance. So, there is the phenomenon when can be occurred 2 days per year. Since the temple is faced to the Eastern, the light from the sun will shine through all doors, to these statues." The, it's switched to Miki. "However, the sunlight isn't shine to all statues, Ptah at the conner left isn't get the light. Archaeological scholars have three reasons in different explains. One says that it's the malfunction while moving the temple upon the land. One said that three statues get the light, but one, because Ptah is the god of darkness as well. And one said that the sun shines only Ramsses because that day was his birthday." Then, switch to Makoto. "By the way, on 22 October and 22 February is the high season of this temple. The ticket is in high cost. Unfortunately, today isn't the phenomenon day. If you were in that day, and we would see that."
Even though they won't see that phenomenon, Miki shows the image on the website to them.
After they come out of the temple, they will go to see the lake with the border far. Makoto says that this lake has a lot of huge Alligator. Because of the dam, those can't go through the river, or got grinded by the turbine of the power generator, so all of alligator are here.
