Valley of the Kings

Carter House: The Restored Home of the Archaeologist who Discovered King Tut

While many come to the Valley of the Kings, the nearby house of Howard Carter is also worth a stop. This mudbrick structure, replete with 1920s furniture, features the study, studio, laboratory, and living quarters of the discoverer of King Tut’s tomb in Egypt.

Sorry for the vain picture, but this sign marking the most famous discovery of Howard Carter cannot be missed. It’s just up the road a bit.
