Missing the Luxor Temple is like missing the whole world

Egyptians often say: "If you haven't been to Luxor, you haven't been to Egypt!" The Luxor Temple was built by the nineteenth pharaoh of the eighteenth dynasty of ancient Egypt, and its grand project is breathtaking! When it comes to Egypt, you might think of the pyramids first, but the pyramids are just relics of the old dynasty around the 26th century BC, and the relics of the Middle and New Kingdoms are concentrated in Luxor. Luxor Temple, a city in the south-central part of Egypt, is located on the banks of the Nile in Upper Egypt, more than 670 kilometers south of Cairo, and is located on the ruins of the southern half of Thebes, the capital of the Middle and New Kingdoms of ancient Egypt. The most eye-catching in the Luxor ruins are the Karnak Temple (karnaktemple) and Luxor Temple (luxortemple) on the east bank of the Nile. Luxor has become a modern tourist city, a tourist attraction in Egypt, where there is a festive and cheerful atmosphere, the temple in the city center has marked Luxor with a special mark, every year there are hundreds of thousands of tourists from all over the world. Egyptians often say: "If you haven't been to Luxor, you haven't been to Egypt" The Luxor Temple is less than a kilometer from the Karnak Temple and was built in the 14th century BC. The temple includes courtyards, halls, and side halls. The courtyard has double rows of stone columns in the shape of bundled papyrus (note: papyrus is a kind of water grass for papermaking in ancient Egypt), the top of the column is in the shape of an umbrella flower, very beautiful. Outside the temple wall is another courtyard built during the reign of the nineteenth dynasty pharaoh Ramses II, where you can see the tall, relief gate and the popular obelisk at the time.
