Photo taken on Feb. 22, 2022 shows a ray of sunlight showering into the Great Temple of Abu Simbel during the Sun Festival in Aswan, Egypt. During the Sun Festival, crowds gather before sunrise to observe sunlight lightening the innermost sculptures including King Ramses II. The innermost sculptures remain in darkness inside the Great Temple of Abu Simbel throughout the year except on Feb. 22 and Oct. 22, when the sunlight showers on the sculptures to commemorate the king's coronation and birthday.
