Egypt Guided Tour - Luxor and Karnak (Dec 2004)

We took a morning internal flight from Cairo to Luxor. We were brought to a cruise boat in private moorings near the edge of the town. After we have "checked in" and left our luggages in our cabins, we had lunch on board. We then alighted to visit the Luxor Temple (below).

Luxor Temple (middle row, 2nd pic): You need to take this picture from an angle so it seemed like the branches are growing out of its head. :-)


Next we visited the Karnak Temple, constructed over a time period of 1500 years.

(bottom row, 2nd pic): It's hard to resist taking a picture of the "bunny" photo. :-)


At night, we returned to walk through the Avenue of Sphinxes, as we were introduced to a complimentary "Sound and Light Show". We strolled through the Karnak Temple one more time.
