Tomb TT55, located in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna on the west bank of the Nile, is the burial site of the Egyptian vizier Ramose. Known for its blend of traditional and early Amarna art, the tomb features a large columned hall with reliefs depicting Ramose and his family, including funerary scenes and the evolution of Amarna style. The walls also show scenes of the reign of Akhenaten, including depictions of the king and queen rewarding Ramose with gold. Though unfinished, these images highlight the tomb's historical significance. Visitors can explore the main hall, a corridor, and an undecorated burial chamber.

Ramose was vizier of Amenhotep III, then of his son Amenhotep IV aka Akhenaten. Therefore it is pretty special, even if unfinished, as you can see this dualism. The fine engravings and the sheer size of the tomb are also awe-inspiring. The columned hall is beautiful. The area well merits a visit, it is super quiet!
