The Lesser Abu Simbel Temple of Queen Nefertari
This is also called the Temple of Hathor because it is dedicaded to this goddess. Outside the temple are six large statues, three of Ramses II and three of his wife Queen Nefertari. There are also smaller ones of their children. Inside there is a hall supported by six pillars topped with the head of goddess Hathor. At the rear of the temple are reliefs of Hathor and the queen.
