新王國時期是古埃及的一個時期，起於公元前16世紀至前11世紀，涵蓋了第十八王朝、第十九王朝及第二十王朝。
在新王國時期的埃及對外擴張勢力，但人民的精力卻為戰事所消耗，文化的進步也因此遲滯了。此時埃及的國都已由孟斐斯移至尼羅河上流的底比斯。最著名的對外擴張的國王是圖特摩斯三世。他組編了一支強而有力的軍隊，自己做了大將，把埃及的版圖嚮東邊擴張到亞洲的幼發拉底河，嚮南邊擴張到紅海的南口。
The New Kingdom, sometimes referred to as the Egyptian Empire, is the period in ancient Egyptian history between the 16th century BC and the 11th century BC, covering the Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth Dynasties of Egypt. The New Kingdom (1570–1070 BC) followed the Second Intermediate Period and was succeeded by the Third Intermediate Period. It was Egypt’s most prosperous time and marked the zenith of its power.
