Luxor simply stuns every tourist with its impressive Karnak temple complex, the Temple of the Birth and a large number of ancient statues, crypts and other ruins located, among others, in the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens on the west bank of the Nile. We were most impressed by the hypostyle hall of the Temple of Amun in Karnak, supported by 134 columns, the highest of which are 23 m high.
