Egypt
- Karnak temple in Luxor

The
Karnak temple is one of the most fantastic sites you'll see in
Egypt.
The
temple
have inscriptions
on every wall, telling legends about what happened in Egypt, and
about all the old pharaohs. There must be something here for every
taste, even if you’re not interested in old history. It's easy to
use several hours here, if you
have the time.
This place was a huge experience.
The
Karnak temple
was
build
over
a period of more than 2500 years.
The
further
you go into the temple, from
today’s
entrance, the older it gets. Every pharaoh has
added
something new
to
the temple, or torn something down. The area of the temple is about
1.5 * 0.8 km.
If you have to choose between visiting Cairo or Luxor, it isn't
hard. Our choice would absolutely be Luxor. There are experiences
for everyone, and we are sure that most people come to Egypt to see
some real life hieroglyphs. And it is in Luxor you find them. The
pictures on this site speaks for them self. It’s a small bite of
what you can expect when you go to Luxor and visit the Karnak
temple.
