One of the most awe-inspiring sites in all of Egypt, Karnak is a vast religious complex dedicated to the Theban triad—Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. Strolling through the Hypostyle Hall with its 134 towering columns feels like stepping back into a world ruled by divine kings and priests.
📍 East Bank of the Nile
Connected to Karnak by the ancient Avenue of Sphinxes, Luxor Temple is an architectural gem especially enchanting at night when it's beautifully illuminated. The temple was used for the Opet Festival and reflects the combined work of pharaohs like Amenhotep III and Ramses II.
📍 East Bank of the Nile
On the west bank of the Nile lies this legendary burial ground of Egypt’s New Kingdom pharaohs. Tombs of iconic rulers like Tutankhamun, Ramses VI, and Seti I are carved deep into the limestone cliffs. Each tomb dazzles with detailed hieroglyphics and vivid wall paintings.
📍 West Bank of the Nile

These two massive statues of Amenhotep III once guarded a long-lost temple and are among Luxor’s most photographed landmarks. Despite their weathered condition, the statues continue to impress with their scale and timeless gaze.
