When I visited Egypt a few years ago I was amazed at how colorful some ruins and temples were. To this day you can go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortuary_Temple_of_Hatshepsut https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortuary_Temple_of_Hatshepsut and see colorful walls and columns and such that are about 3500 years old. It still gives me goosebumps.
