    One of the four famous Tombs of the Kings, located to the right of the main path.
    This tomb is notable for the different colored layers of rock.

    The name of the Silk Tomb comes from the colors of its eroded sandstone facade. The Silk Tomb suffered extensive environmental damage, destroying the entire façade surface and exposing the underlying pink, white and yellow veined sandstone.
