| Abstract | ||||
| Gardens were considered important additions of temples during the New Kingdom. Kings took pride in creating gardens, so Queen Hatshepsut created a garden inside the Deir el-Bahari temple and it was filled with different types of trees. King Amenhotep II established a garden in Karnak, and the texts of Amenhotep III recorded the king's gifts from the gardens of the gods' temples. In a hill for workers, several gardens from the era of Akhenaten were discovered during the excavation process. How much did Ramses II spend on the gardens for his temple in Abydos, and Ramses III created gardens for the Heliopolis Amun Temple. The presence of gardens has spread in the courtyards of temples. The gardens had a role in the religious rituals inside the temples. Where vegetables are grown as offerings, and in the celebrations, the statues of God had to be decorated with flowers from these gardens. These gardens were irrigated with natural irrigation or artificial irrigation | ||||
