We finally arrive at Luxor. We have cruised South or UP river from Cairo to Luxor and now we will spend a few days here because there is SO MUCH to see. I will only visit my favorite sites but there is so much more, AND my favorite sites change every year so ... take them for what they are.
Let's start at the greatest and biggest of all sites in Egypt: Karnak Temple. Covering over 65 acres this temple complex was started in the Old Kingdom and added to in just about every Dynasty after that. I love one of the few remaining obelisks in Egypt, the statues of King Tutankhamen, the HUGE scarab, and the Sheshak wall all are must visits
