Description

The Nile River splits Luxor into two parts: the East Bank and the West Bank.

The East Bank of Luxor is the location of Luxor town. This is where most Egyptians live and work and it is also where you will find the majority of hotels and restaurants.

There are just a few notable sites to visit on this side of the river, but two of these (Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple) are two of the most spectacular sites to visit in Egypt.

The Temples of Karnak represent the world's largest religious complex that is also a showcase of the splendor and decadence of Egyptian art over nearly 20 centuries dating back to the fifteenth century BC. The highlight of this temple is the hypostyle hall built during the reign of Ramses II, and the Sacred Beetle.

The tour proceeds by visiting the beautiful temple of Luxor. Built during the reign of Ramases II in its newest part and by Tuthmosis III in its oldest, you will be able to appreciate the perfection and dedication of Egyptian art during the XVII dynasty. It takes just 45 minutes to walk from one temple to the other, and on your way, you will observe several sphinxes and hear a number of stories about the pharaohs responsible for their construction.
