The entrance to one of the most famous tombs in history—KV62, the final resting place of Pharaoh Tutankhamun. Hidden beneath the sands of the Valley of the Kings for over 3,000 years, this tomb was rediscovered in 1922 by Howard Carter, revealing a breathtaking array of treasures that stunned the world.
Though modest in size compared to other royal tombs, Tutankhamun’s burial chamber was packed with priceless artifacts, offering an unparalleled glimpse into the splendor of ancient Egyptian funerary traditions. Walking up to this entrance, you can only imagine the anticipation Carter must have felt before uttering his legendary words: “Yes, wonderful things.”
