Dayr al-Bahri

 or Deir al-Bahri

Temple site, Egypt. Located on the western bank of the Nile River near the remains of Thebes and opposite the ruins of Karnak, it encompasses the remains of three temples associated with three different Egyptian rulers: the funerary temple of King Mentuhotep II (built c. 1970 BC); a temple built by Thutmose III (c. 1435 BC); and the terraced temple of Queen Hatshepsut (built c. 1470 BC), much of which has been restored.
