In the heart of Luxor, you’ll find the temples of Karnak, dedicated first and foremost to the god Amun-Re. Karnak is an absolutely massive temple complex that would easily fit St. Peter’s Basilica from Rome and St. Paul’s Cathedral from London just in the main hypostyle hall. Dozens of ram headed sphinxes line our path into the temple complex.

To walk through Karnak is to take a stroll through over a thousand years of Egyptian history. As a general rule, the further in you go, the older the buildings.
