Your day begins with an unforgettable visit to Luxor Temple, which is a large and complex ancient Egyptian temple located on the eastern bank of the Nile River, created in remembrance of the Theban Trinity, which is made up of the gods Amun-Ra, Mut, and Khonsu. The XVIII and XIX dynasties' rulers oversaw the construction of the Luxor temple. The most important structures of the temple are those built by the kings Amenhotep III and Amenhotep II.
After that we headed to the Temple of Karnak, a complex of temples, buildings, and columns, where the expansion and construction continued from the Pharaonic era, specifically the kings of the Middle Kingdom, to the Roman era in Luxor, Egypt, on the eastern shore. The temple was built as a tribute to Amun's celestial triad. The ancient Egyptian concept that Thebes was the first city to be built on the primordial hill that emerged above the seas of chaos at the beginning of the Earth's formation may have contributed to the temple's name. At that time, the god Atum (sometimes the god Ptah) stood on the hill to begin creation. It was believed that the temple's location was on this ground, and the temple was erected on this site for this reason. It was thought that Karnak was both an observatory and a site of worship where the god Amun had direct interactions with the local populace.
After that, we'll show you the Karnak Temple's sound and light show while revealing its historical secrets. We take you to visit magic where it originated; you'll find it written all around you on the walls, lifting you out of reality in an hour! Then it gently puts you down, and you realize how lucky you were to be there!
