Egypt has reopened the 3,400-year-old tomb of Amenhotep III after more than 20 years of restoration, letting visitors descend 46 feet into the Valley of the Kings site
Visitors can now descend 46 feet underground into the newly reopened tomb of Amenhotep III, one of ancient Egypt's most powerful rulers. Closed to the public for the past two decades, the 3,400-year-old site has officially been reopened just ahead of the historic debut of the Grand Egyptian Museum.
