Discover Gebel Barkal: The Unseen Beauty of Napatans in Sudan


Nestled on the right bank of the Nile, this historical treasure is located about 400 km North of Khartoum, Sudan's capital. It was once the religious hub of the Napatan Kingdom, dating back to the 8th century BC.

The place radiates a special reverence, as the kings and queens of old believed that Jebel Barkal had been strongly associated with God Amun, the Egyptian deity. They called Napata the sacred mountain, and it became the spiritual nucleus for the Nubian and Egyptian people.

It is now one of the revered world heritage sites that narrate tales of the bygone eras as much through their archaeological remnants as through their silent, age-old spirit.
