You will see the ruins of Akhetaten – temples and private or administrative buildings – scattered across the plain of Tell Al Amarna, but the main sights to head for are the tombs. There are 26 in total, divided into two groups, some 8km apart. Tombs one to six are in the north; seven to 25 are in the south. No 26 is the royal tomb. Not all are open and only five (3 to 6 and the royal tomb) currently have light.
