The most striking of the Luxor monuments are the Karnak Temple on the east bank of the Nile and the Luxor Temple. The Karnak Temple is one of the most spectacular ancient buildings in the world. The construction of the temple can be traced back to the twelfth dynasty from 1960 BC to 1926 BC. After that, it was continuously expanded. At the peak period, there were more than 100,000 slaves, more than 200,000 animals, and 83 ships. There are rare treasures from the tributes of 65 cities around Egypt. The Karnak Temple is a city of well-deserved temples! Until the Ptolemy dynasty, more than 50 pharaohs were added to this, and the longest expansion in history lasted for nearly 1600 years! The first tower gate of the temple was built during the Ptolemy period. Due to the decline of the national strength, the tower gate was not completed yet, but the 129-meter-wide and 43-meter-high volume still gave a quite shocking feeling. Karnak Temple: Opening hours: 8
