Jeep on the desert next to the Hatshepsut mortuary temple, near Luxor in Egypt

There is a fine road that leads to the Hatshepsut mortuary temple, near Lexus, but the region surrounding the road still is deserted, pretty much like a desert. In this photo, you can see one of the few vehicles that are useful for traveling on such a terrain, namely a jeep. For people from the Egyptian department maintaining these sites, or people doing excavation or restoration, the jeep is a very useful vehicle.
