Luxor, often hailed as the “world’s largest open-air museum,” sits majestically on the east bank of the Nile River. This incredible city is built upon the ancient site of Thebes, the pharaohs’ capital at the height of their power. Here, colossal temples like Karnak and Luxor stand testament to an empire’s grandeur, while the West Bank reveals the mystical Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, and the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. A journey through Luxor is a profound step back in time, offering unparalleled insights into ancient Egyptian civilization, from monumental architecture to intricate tomb paintings.
