About Luxor

Luxor ligt op de plek van het antieke Thebe, met reusachtige tempels op de oostoever en de koningsgraven van de Vallei der Koningen aan de overkant.

Op de oostoever strekt het tempelcomplex van Karnak zich uit over hectares aan pylonen, obelisken en het zuilenwoud van de Grote Hypostyle Zaal. Een laan van sfinxen verbindt het met de Luxortempel in het centrum van de stad, die vooral sfeervol is wanneer hij 's avonds wordt verlicht. Het Luxormuseum en het Mummificatiemuseum liggen langs de boulevard aan de rivier.

Top-ranked sights in Luxor: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut (at Deir el-Bahari), Colossi of Memnon.
