Karnak Luxor and beginning on the Nile
Egyptian archeologists are working on the road between Karnak and Luxor with a two mile stretch of 3000 sphinx. It will be amazing once it is finished but they have to move many homes and businesses and apparently has been ongoing negotiations for 30 years.
Couple more views of this beautiful obelisk
Bit closer to see the magnificent hieroglyphics
The amount of color that has survived 2000+ years is amazing, have huge sand storms to thank for the preservation.
Apparently the Nile lacks very many bridges so crossings are often times on small boats. The group sat below but I rushed up to the roof to catch the views.
Outside of the valley of the Kings is this magnificent temple of Hatshepsut, carved into the mountain. The statues in front are in wonderful condition.
Colossi of Memnon
After a great day exploring the sunset on the Nile was amazing.
Followed by a wonderful sunrise.
