Tourists and the statues inside the Abu Simbel temple in Egypt

A view of some of the large statues inside the Abu Simbel temple in South Egypt. These are statues that are lining the inside corridor of the Abu Simbel temple just from the entrance of the temple. You can get an idea of the size of these statues (lining the walls of the temple) when you look at the scale of the tourists in the same photo. Since there was a restriction in carrying your camera inside the temple, these were the only view that I could from the outside. However, I could also see many photos of the inside of the temple on many sites, so was wondering whether these photography restrictions were new, or people anyhow took photos inside.
