The 4 sitting statues at the Abu Simbel, with one damaged statue out of the 4 statues

The 4 sitting statues at Abu Simbel, set inside the setback in the rock at the entrance to the temple. These are very huge statues, looking very impressive; unfortunately one of the statues was damaged a long time back and never restored. The sight of these huge statues must have been very impressive for people who were passing by on the river Nile, and saw these huge statues at the entrance to the temple.
