This is the Colossi of Memnon in Luxor Egypt, two large seated statues that were once part of the front of the mortuary temple to Amenophis III. There has been another statue found recently that you can see has been erected behind, This momument dates from before 1000 bc and has graffiti on it. Albeit from the Emperor Hadrian who left an inscription on the leg of the right hand statue. This is always a stopoff photo opportunity for coaches on their way back from the Valley of the Kings
