[Introduction to Scenic Spots] Karnak Temple is the most magnificent temple left over from the ancient Egyptian Empire. It is world-renowned for its vast scale and covers more than 30 hectares only in well-preserved parts. There are three parts in the Karnak temple: the Amun temple, the Amun temple, the Mut temple, the Amun wife's war goddess, and the Monsieur temple. [Overall Feeling] When you come to Egypt, apart from looking up at the magical pyramids in Cairo, you have to visit the Karnak Temple. Walking into the scenic spot, your first feeling is shock. The magnificent super-long Jingdao composed of the Sphinx and the Sheep's Face gives people a strong sense of ritual and dignity. Excellent. What's more, in such temples thousands of years ago, these sculptures were well preserved. We can't help but wonder at the wisdom of the ancient Egyptians. Then the 8-metre-high statue of Ramses II came into view, standing on the soles of his feet is his beloved wife, Nafiltari. Moving forward, the most striking thing is the dozens of huge columns carved with ancient Egyptian stories, each of which can tell a long series of stories. Of course, time is limited. The tour guide only told some stories. In the temple, there are coloured columns, after so many years, the colour is intact, which can not help but amaze us. Then in Egypt, the Obelisk must also be seen, there are many obelisks in the temple, each has a story, so we need to investigate carefully. In addition, the Karnak temple is too big. Our tour guide gave us two hours of free activities and one hour of lecture. It seems that the time is really not enough. The Karnak temple is very big, and the stories are very many, so we are just watching the flowers. In addition, it is highly recommended that you go in January - February, not very hot, very comfortable.

    In a country with a ton of temples, this is one of the better ones. Try to hire a certified tour guide to talk about all of the history of the temple.

    “If mankind wants to see its smallness, it does not need to look up at the infinite sky of stars, it is enough to look at the ancient Egyptian civilization that existed, flourished, and disappeared thousands of years ago.” This passage comes from a book called The Resurrection of Pharaoh, and the Karnaq temple that you will visit today will really give you a sense of the exact nature of this passage. The Karnaq temple is the largest temple complex in ancient Egypt and the oldest temple in Thebes.

    A must-visit site in Luxor! It's the largest and most to see in the middle of the day. It's perfect to go in the afternoon and look around and see the sunset at sunset.
