At the beginning of the tour, visit luxor temple, Luxor Temple is one of the most spectacular temples in Egypt. Luxor Temple was built between 1400 and 1000 BC, under the orders of the pharaohs Amenhotep III and Ramses II. Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple, located less than three kilometers from each other, were connected by the Avenue of the Sphinxes, once lined with more than 600 sphinxes. At the time of today, you will only be able to see the beginning of this avenue, at the gates of each of the two temples.

The temple of millions of years of Ramses III is built by this pharaoh who wanted to make his funerary temple in the image of that of his predecessor, Ramses II. Indeed Ramses III seeks to restore the grandeur of Egypt of his illustrious ancestor. Upon his accession to the throne, he began to build his jubilee, funerary temple, which is one of the largest in the Theban necropolis.
