Luxor celebrates 110th anniversary of Queen Nefertari Tomb discovery | Cairo Post

Luxor celebrates 110th anniversary of Queen Nefertari Tomb discovery | Cairo Post: In July, the Supreme Council of Antiquities announced it would launch a project to build an exact, full-size replica of Queen Nefertari’s tomb to divert tourists away from the badly damaged original tomb while still providing them the chance to experience what the original looks like.

“The facsimile production of the tomb will record every tiny detail and dozens of square yards of inscriptions and depictions of scenes found in the original tomb,” Shoukry previously told The Cairo Post

NO CELEBRATIONS AT QUEENS VALLEY

Did someone forget to tell Luxor?

No one in Luxor seems to know anything about these celebrations, which includes some high-ranking people and especially at the Queens Valley, which is a normal day.

How does this happen?
