Overview

On the east side of the Nile, you will visit two of ancient Egypt’s most important temple sites: Luxor Temple and the Karnak temple complex. At Luxor, you will learn that the monument was built by Amenhotep III, who was the grandfather of Tutankhamun. The setting on the river’s east bank frames the site’s long history and its role in ancient religious life. You will also explore the vast Karnak temples, a monumental complex whose construction continued for more than 2,000 years. As you move through the area, you will encounter the scale and endurance of successive building phases that together formed this huge temple precinct. Along the way, the names Amenhotep III, Luxor and Karnak will help you link the sites to the pharaohs and long construction history that shaped them.
