RE: EGYPTOLOGY: The Temple of Deir El-Hagar
How is the temple protected from sandstorms today? Have they built walls around it?

The original wall, a so called "temenos wall" is still there, although it has some gaps. But the restorers built an additional fence around made of local reed plants. This is very effective against sandstorms, but of course it will have to be renewed from time to time.
Here is an example of the wall and the fence behind it. :)
Wow! It looks huge!
