1. We will pick you up from your hotel in Luxor to cross the Nile to visit Habu temple. Just southeast of the Valley of the Queens is Deir el-Medina, the ruins of a village that housed the craftsmen and workers who dug and decorated the tombs and other Theban monuments. It is a very important area to Egyptology because it has revealed many of the facets of ordinary life in Egypt, and there are some wonderful tombs in its necropolis. All along the border between the fertile section of the Valley and the hills, we find Temples and one palace. The southernmost temple is that of Ramesses III located at Medinet Habu. The palace, one of the southernmost monuments in the Valley, is at Malkata, just south of Deir el-Medina, and belonged to Amenhotep III, but was probably also inhabited by a few of his successors. At one time, it was a huge complex. The northernmost temple is that of Seti I, which at one time also probably served as an administrative center on the West Bank.

About Luxor

Luxor ligger där det forntida Thebe stod, med enorma tempel på Nilens östra strand och kungagravarna i Konungarnas dal på andra sidan floden.

På östra stranden breder tempelkomplexet Karnak ut sig över hektar av pyloner, obelisker och kolonnskogen i sin stora hypostylsal. En sfinxallé förbinder det med Luxortemplet i stadens centrum, som är särskilt stämningsfullt när det är upplyst på kvällen. Luxormuseet och Mumifieringsmuseet ligger längs kajen vid floden.

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